And indeed, it did rain just enough to keep us consistently wet, but we were too pendejo to seek shelter. In our defense, toughing it out allowed the four of us to see 83 species in one day, a very respectable total for Paso Ancho. So true, so true.

That has certainly been my own experience, but I am not the only one who says this; an ever-growing body of evidence confirms this fact. Some scientists suggest that our brains may be hard-wired to relate the color with a place of food, shelter and safety. My day will be great whether I see 80 species or only 30. Green is good.
