Parakeet Clay Lick
This clay lick is only a twenty five minute walk from Posada Amazonas. From a blind located about twenty meters away you will see dozens of parakeets descend on most clear mornings to ingest the clay on a river bank. Species such as Blue-headed Parrot and Dusky headed Parakeet descend at this clay lick. The clay lick is active at dawn, during the late mornings and mid-afternoons.
