Our camp in Puina is called Campamento Torrentero because of the presence of torrent ducks (Merganetta armata) that ride the rapids of the Puina River through town. At this time of year these bravest of ducks have ducklings, and, at times with our hearts in our mouths, the team has been treated to the sight of the beautiful adult pair teaching their young to swim and ride the rapids. In addition to these photos we hope to share some video of this behavior with you soon and we are sure you will all agree these are without doubt the coolest and most spectacular ducks in the world!
