DSC_2521b.jpgThere was also a female Black-tailed Trainbearer in the area. |
DSC_2523b.jpgYou can see the curve of the bill of the female Black-tailed Trainbearer. Andres said this is indicative of the Black-tailed, which is more common in this area, versus the straight bill of the less common Green-tailed. |

DSC_2536b.jpgAt Reserva Yanacoche, we stopped first at the feeders, where we saw this Glossy Flowerpiercer.
I debated on whether or not to put all the photos of one species together, but settled on posting them in the order we saw them (or in which I photographed them). |

PXL_20240304_165717834b.jpgThese two Buff-winged Starfrontlets chased each other around near the feeders for several seconds. One finally landed on the ground and the other flew off to land on a nearby low bush. |

We left the feeders and walked up the trail to the left of the entrance sign. I went back to the hummingbird feeders before the end of the trail and Jerry Davis got this photo after I left the group. |

DSC_2749b.jpgThe fog started rolling in, as it is wont to do in the cloudforest, but it did not conceal the back colors of the Shining Sunbeam. |

DSC_2796b.jpgAfter leaving Reserva Yanacoche and heading for Sachatamia Lodge, we stopped along Rio Alambi to see a White-capped Dipper. |

DSC_2818b.jpgWe also spotted a Collared Inca, though he didn't show us much of his collar. |
DSC_2830b.jpgFarther along, we saw one, then several Band-tailed Pigeons in a distant tree in the fog. |
DSC_2837b.jpgThe Speckled Hummingbird was another nice find. |
