    Dusky Tapaculo

    The fourth tapaculo species of my central Chile trip, this one was in matorral, hopping about in the tangled branches of some oak-like trees
  2. Black-spotted barbet couple

    Black-spotted barbet couple

    A lovely barbet of the Guianan shield, I snapped several photos of one individual before realizing that the other one was right next to it, and I moved a bit to get both in the same shot.
  3. Ancash Tapaculo

    Ancash Tapaculo

    One of Peru's many endemic tapaculos, mostly found in Ancash, as its name indicates.

    Comment by 'Thibaud' in media 'Magellanic Tapaculo'

    Ah well in fairness that whole magellanicus group, i.e. the silvery species that are found above the treeline (Ancash, Paramo, Neblina, etc), are much easier than their cloud forest relatives!
  5. Magellanic Tapaculo

    Magellanic Tapaculo

    Of course, tapaculos that are found above the treeline are usually the easiest species to see, but this one was particularly bold, and I even saw it hopping on rocks just by a creek, like a miniature dipper!
  6. Ash-breasted tit-tyrant

    Ash-breasted tit-tyrant

    A emblematic species of Peruvian Polylepis forests, this beautiful little flycatcher is unfortunately quite rare and endangered
  7. Red-billed Woodcreeper

    Red-billed Woodcreeper

    A pretty rare woodcreeper, we were lucky to hear its characteristic dawn song, and it came flying out after a bit of playback.
  8. Fulvous Antshrike

    Fulvous Antshrike

    A very sneaky Amazonian antbird, I believe this is the first photo for Peru!
  9. Variegated tinamou

    Variegated tinamou

    Probably the prettiest tinamou I've seen! Luckily, it was one of these occasions where it walked slowly away from me, instead of exploding practically from underfoot like a snipe and disappearing in the distance. It walked maybe 10 meters downhill and then appeared to be quite curious, popping...
  10. Helmeted Pygmy-Tyrant

    Helmeted Pygmy-Tyrant

    A ubiquitous little flycatcher in the understorey of French Guiana, on my last day I finally ran into a cooperative bird!
  11. Flammulated Pygmy-Tyrant

    Flammulated Pygmy-Tyrant

    As ebird says, this little bamboo specialist actually looks duller than its name suggests haha. Still, I was pleased to finally run into one!
  12. Chestnut-shouldered antwren

    Chestnut-shouldered antwren

    A tricky canopy antwren, much more easily heard than seen!
  13. Dusky-throated Antshrike

    Dusky-throated Antshrike

    A bird with an unusually extensive black throat patch
