Those of us staying at Trogon had a relaxed morning, with breakfast anytime after 7:00, luggage needing to be outside the rooms by 7:30, and departure at 8:30. It was a little bit warmer this morning than yesterday (53) and there were a few birds around, including the ground-foraging large-footed finch, a Talamanca hummingbird feeding on fuchsias and other plants, rufus-collared sparrows flitting around, the tiny volcano hummingbird busily zipping from orange flower to flower on the marmalade bush, and flame-colored tanager moving through, but no quetzal sightings. There was a red-tailed squirrel running up into the tree tomato shrub, grabbing ripe orange fruits and running off with them. The five staying at Savegre arrived in the dining room about 7:45 and hung out for a while, but most people drifted off to pay bar tabs, return to their rooms for a bit, or wander the grounds looking for birds and flowers.
