A view from the mouth of the cave. There were many parrakeets and parrots flying around here, and the sounds of the oilbirds (Steatornis Caripensis) echoing from inside were unreal. Oilbirds are a nocturnal owllike species, and called that way because the babies would grow grotesquely fat and this fat was used by natives and early settlers for making torch oil.# posted by Jussi Soini @ 12:49 PM
