This is a really cool reserve. The Volcanic crater is inhabited by a small farming community, one horse ranch, and a couple of lodges. Pululahua Hostal is where I stayed and they are very big into sustainable living and are constantly working to be self-reliant producing everything they can in the community itself and hiring local workers. I only had a couple of hours of free time at the lodge due to other trips but it's definitely a spot that deserves further exploration. They have some really cute borrowing owls!

Is that a Burrowing Owl in the last shot? I'd love to be there!

Yep, I am told about 10 borrowing owl adults live in the volcano crater at any one time. We were able to observe two of them.
I hope to post the last of my Ecuador pictures in a couple of days. |
