Dear Diary,
Today I saw lekking Cock of the Rock. Due to drenching rain, there was no camera at the ready to document this experience, but I hardly need a camera to remeber such a spectacle of evolutionary insanity. The birds can be heard from a couple hundred meters away as they scream and hop about in their brilliant red-orange plumage. They chicken sized and dazzlingly colored, yet hard to find amidst the dense foliage. Once you find them, however, it's hard to lose them. They are simply, strikingly impressive.
