Guyana is probably most famous in birding circles for the unlikely discovery of a population of critically endangered Red Siskins in early 2000. In the year 2000, the world held their breath as ornithologists from the Smithsonian and the University of Kansas led an expedition into the southern Rupununi region.

When we first moved into our home in the winter of 2000 we had daily visits by Long-tailed Finches and they took advantage of the water that we provided for them. Of course we still have brilliant blue skies and 30c (86f) during the day, but the sun is setting at 5:20pm and the temperature soon drops off.

Sitting in the car and scanning the 2000 birds strong flock… Such a perfect moment. Hundreds of Pink-footed Geese were landing in that field, possibly to roost for the night, a mere 50 meters from us, with heads as dark as the Bean Geese , but close enough to see their meat-pink feet. One of them was partially leucistic.
