Panorámica donde se observa un Caricare Encrestado posado sobre la rama superior de un Cují (Prosopis juliflora), arbusto predominante en esta ecozona, a un lado de la rama hacia la derecha del adulto se puede observar el vuelo de un Caricare juvenil.
En esta región para la fecha, continúa la sequía, solo lluvias esporádicas, grave la situación.
