Seen taking cover in a thunderstorm. This bird also caused some confusion as it's not very green, and the bill is 2-toned. The tail in other photos however is very rufous. Gamboa, Panama.

This species caused some confusion with the group of birders that had assembled. After much review it appears to be a Yellow-crowned Tyrannulet especially with the prominent wing bars that are not seen in this photo. Happy to hear other opinions though. Gamboa, Panama.

Thankfully this bird didn't fly away as we passed by along the road. It had been eating something so we left it to go back for breakfast. Gamboa, Panama.

On a very steamy morning with high humidity at the village of Gamboa, Panama. The dark malar stripe separates this species from the similar Roadside Hawk.

Presqu'ile Provincial Park - I thought I'd give you a rare glimpse into the world of the Snowy Owl. If you look closely you'll see that this bird is in the process of coughing up a pellet which consists of undigested fur, bones and in this specific case, a few small feathers (duck may have been on the menu). It took it about a minute before the pellet was expelled. This shot was about 5 seconds before it was out. The gray mass is about 2" long and nearly an inch wide. By examining owl pellets you can gauge what its recent meals have been.

The last time we came across this species was 25 years ago in Patagonia, Arizona when my brother spotted him along a stream. Had the camera ready this time! Gamboa, Panama.
