This species is one of the most striking we saw during a brief stay in Costa Rica. The colouring appears surreal but actually shows what we saw. The light reflection off the large leaves nearby may also have helped. Talari Mountain Lodge, Costa Rica.

The highlight of the trip, not only for looking spectacular, but for seeing the excitement it created from many people and even non-birdwatchers. We were very lucky to have him fly down from a hidden perch into the open. With hope the forests can continue to be protected with increased interest and awareness of this and other bird species. Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Reserve, Costa Rica.

Seen at Monteverde, Costa Rica. Interestingly, this was seen while watching a Quetzal, and although I mentioned several times that a new species was perched above us, nobody in the group could take their eyes off the Quetzal and they missed the Jay.

The Sooty-capped replaces the common bush-tanager in the small, wet cloud forest above 2000 m. Another 'tick' on my goal of seeing all the world's Chlorospingus: six down, three to go.
