This was the best angle to photograph him.
Not a very good photo but I was pleased to see him/her

Near Bonville - This is a Blue-winged x Golden-winged hybrid. Apparently females may have yellow below while males tend to be off white. One way or another this rare find for me was unexpected.

Bringing an end to one of the most incredible birding trips - late afternoon on the way to Quito Airport, a stop at Zuroloma was like being in a dream.

Darlington Provincial Park - Breeding colours are stunning compared with the familiar white/gray/black we see most of the year. A majority of the birds I saw had weak colours or the grayer plumage of non-breeding adults.
