Day 1 (Puembo area, Calacali, Alambi, Sachatamia & Mindo area)

We started day 1 birding the area of the Puembo Birding Gardens. After getting our fill here we hit the road and started birding our way to the northwest, with a few stops here and there. We birded Calacali a bit, then on to lunch at fabulous Alambi. Afterwards we made our way to Sachatamia Lodge, our base for the next 3 nights with easy access to Mindo, Milpe, Paz de Aves, and Silanche.
