Bhutan Day 6

We start early morning in the pass of Pele-la accompanied by the yak.

Small fast flying birds do not lend themselves to digiscoping but a Green-tailed Sunbird poses for me on top of a tree.

A shrine typical of those encountered on the roads. This is a particularly large one.

We encounter our first Golden Langurs - with extraordinary long tails.

And some rather attractive Snow Pigeons

Our overnight stop is Trongsa. Here is the Dzong and our hotel viewed from the other side of a valley.

They are probably less than a kilometre away as the Large-billed Crow flies. But we have to drive down one side of the valley and up the other - a journey of about 16 km.
