Pyrrhomyias cinnamomeus
Here is another little bird from our recent Peru trip. This one we encountered several times up in the cloud forest and was generally cooperative allowing for some nice photos. At one point we were even able to watch a pair as they were building a nest. Something about this bird just screams cute to me. Maybe it is those big black eyes that seem so far forward on its tiny head.
