In the heart of Yasuní National Park, near the southern bank of the Napo River, an astonishing natural spectacle is hidden: the Parrot Clay Lick. This geological formation, sculpted by erosion, is the daily meeting point for vibrant flocks of parrots, parakeets, and macaws. These birds come to the clay lick to consume essential minerals that help them digest fruits and seeds. 💡Trivia: This site has become a point of observation and study for this group of birds, and the accompaniment of a guide helps identify the different species that visit the clay lick.
