We decide to continue on this road as although it goes south
for a while it loops back up to Moyobamba. When we got to the next
little town we could not find a decent road past it. They all petered
out.
One house in this town had 3 really fancy looking roosters tied up by the leg.
So back to the main road. Had to pay the security guards another S/1 as we went past.

Came across a
reserve for the endangered Hummingbird “Marvellous Spatuletail”
It has two long tail feathers that it uses to attract mate. We
wondered around and paid our entrance fee. We saw other hummingbirds
in the trees and at the feeders but it was drizzling and we had been
warned we would not see much.
We continued our long slog on wet pavement, came across a car that had its back bumper resting on the far edge of the gutter, with both back wheels hanging in the gutter (tropical gutters here). He asked for a push. So John (disbelieving) and another guy lifted the back of car and he drove off!!
