The Amazon Golf Course, November 12, 2009

This is what caught my attention at the Amazon Golf Course on November 12, 2009

The view of the Amazon Golf Course from the top floor of the clubhouse

I like to sit on the top floor of the Amazon Golf Course clubhouse and watch the trees grow.

Wildlife

We had a good nature experience this morning. Marmelita and I were standing behind the clubhouse when she urgently whispered “Monkeys, I hear monkeys. Pichicos!” Pichico is Spanish for Saddle-backed Tamarin.

Then she spotted a Black Saddleback Tamarin running along a branch on an Aguaje tree. Then another one jumped from Aguaje tree to Aguaje tree. We watched 8 or 10 of the long tailed little monkeys performing acrobatic leaps from tree to tree for half an hour until they moved farther back out of sight.

I was happy with what caught my attention at the Amazon Golf Course. You could be happy there too. Stop in and look around and see what catches your attention. There is golf, but also more than golf.
