Machu Picchu Wildlife

We saw less wildlife at Machu  Picchu than had we hoped but still picked up our first llamas and southern viscacha (Lagidium viscacia).  The viscachas were a real surprise because we hadn't really been aware of their existence

Birding was limited but we did pick up two new species as well as a few old favourites such as this Blue-grey Tanager (Thraupis episcopus).
