Depart the ship but decline a paid excursion
Make note of which ship we arrived on and where we are currently located
Lets walk into town and see what we can see nearby
Decide to visit Cartagena's aviary and parrot emporium
This must be the emporium because here are some parrots
An anteater up high looking for big and meaty tree ants
A peacock spreads if foliage to show off . . . or warn us to back off?
The white peacock is much more shy
Strange and colorful Guianan Cock-of-the-rock bird
You're not in the caribbean if you don't see flamingos
