SEASONS |
For most locales, October is an excellent month. It is midway between the dry season and wet season. Ecuador’s temperature very change little with the seasons as it sits right on the equator. Some hummers, such as the booted racket tail are molting in October and look rather ragged. They are better photographed in the beginning of the year. |
TIMES |
