The Marshlands of the Paramo
ECUA08D-520
January 27, 2008
While a lot of the paramo is thought to be dry alpine grasslands, it is quite a diverse and interesting ecosystem. Today's image to kick off the week is still found in Ecuador, hiking around a shallow seasonal lake and wetlands near Mt. Ruminahui in Cotopaxi National Park. This shot, I believe, shows off the diversity of the highlands, and also gives a brief glimpse at how beautiful this area is. Enjoy.
