We saw this pair of Killdeers foraging on the grassy areas of the Chitré airstrip; the birds were seen during high tide. A quick stop at Sarigua National Park added Common Ground-Dove, these doves seem to be easier to find here. Among some other birds we saw Pale-eyed Pygmy-Tyrant, Mouse-colored Tyrannulet and two Roseate Spoonbills.
