A new species for me made a brief appearance at a feeder at Zuroloma. As with most locations in the Ecuadorian Andes, it was hard to keep up with the bird activity - a great challenge to have.

As the book says, this bird could be mistaken at first for many other types of birds. Not put off by an Andean Bear nearby, had only 1 photo click and fortunately it was in focus. Bellavista Forest Reserve
