Patagonia

When in El Calafate we visited the Laguna Nimez reserve, which concentrates a varied sample of local wildlife. This ecological environment lodges an educational circuit with trails and signposts laid up along over 2,500 meters. The reserve has good vantage points that enable visitors to watch the flamingoes, geese, silvery grebes, black-necked swans, ibis, lapwings, ducks, coots, hawks and chimangos, among other 70 species.

HFF and a great Easter weekend everybody! :-)
