After awakening to overcast skies and dense fog again, we were treated to fantastic sighting of an endemic Rothschild's porcupine lounging in a tree near Plantation Road. It is the smallest porcupine in the world. The Canopy staff was excitedly called in from all around the park as this cute creature is only encountered once or twice a year.
Rain continued to drench the region intermittently during the day and plagued the already difficult situation with limited lighting within the rainforest.
We spent the day traveling the Pipeline Road; however, perhaps due to unrealistic expectations built up by its infamous reputation amongst birders, we were a bit disappointed with the experience from a photography standpoint. The best image was of a tolerant Great Jacamar resting between his meals on butterflies.
