I’m guessing Panama… the two oceans clue feels too obvious, and the motmot may have given it away. Am I close? 👀

Happy August Annette

It's much closer to your home than you think - your sister isle, Tobago!

No way.

I thought it was Tobago at first, but I didn't know motmots were found in Tobago.

The ocean picture was actually taken from Little Tobago. We found two distinct tail feathers from a motmot there. The pic of the motmot was taken at a bird sanctuary on Tobago.

He loves birds :)

Caribbean and Atlantic? Oh but the bird is a Guardabarranco - Nicaragua state bird. Hmmm

You got the Caribbean and Atlantic right. I was on Tobago. The motmot is common throughout Central and South America and parts of the Caribbean. I fell in love with that bird!

I think it's winter in Argentina now....I was much, much further North on the outer edge of South America, just off the coast of Venezuela! And I fell in love with that bird!
