Chris: Very interesting. I noticed the branch took a bounce at the end…I guess something landed 😊
Krish: That was a third hornbill, rudely landing on their branch :)

Santa Marta Bush Tyrant (1)

Colombia

Date taken: Feb 21 2023

At the surprise of Ricardo Martinez and several others, I spotted this species (not knowing what it was). On showing the photo, the field marks are all there for Santa Marta Bush-tyrant. Unfortunately for everyone the bird immediately disappeared and no better photos could be managed - apologies for that. Cuchillo San Lorenzo, Santa Marta Mountains.

Sue Bishop: Nice you could get some endemics.
Chris: I believe we saw 10 endemics that morning…a special place.
