Island Girl flew only 84 miles across the coastal plain of Colombia yesterday.
She roosted in a tropical forested area but, again, the coverage on Google Earth is fairly low resolution so we can't really see what she might have slept on last night. This is a pretty remote area of the world I guess.
Looks like she was just into the lower foothills of the Andes and roosted at about 292' elevation.
Interesting facts about Colombia.
It is almost entirely in the northern hemisphere.
It extends further north than either Panama or Costa Rica.
It has a mountain 18,700 feet in elevation, higher than anything in the conterminous USA.
It has more people than Canada
USA 309 million
Brazil 193 million
Mexico 110 million
Colombia 45 million
Canada 34 million
Oh yeah, and Shakira is from there......
