Various birds, Iguazú, Argentina (1 Viewer)

Well-known member
Pictures taken in late August in Iguazú National Park, Argentina.

My IDs are as follows:
bf238 - Dusky-legged guan (Penelope obscura; Pava de monte común). Or is it rusty-margined (Penelope superciliaris; Yacupoí)? It looks like it has a distinct eye brow but legs don't really seem red.
bf257 - Scaly-headed parrot (Pionus maximiliani; Loro choclero)
bf278 - Surucua trogon (Trogon surrucura; Surucuá común)
bf232 - Amazon kingfisher (Chloroceryle amazona; Martín pescador mediano). Or is it Green kingfisher (Chloroceryle americana; Martín pescador chico)
bf250 - House wren (Troglodytes aedon; Ratona común)

#1 Looks like Rusty-margined Guan. It is also the most common at Iguazú.
#2 Scarlet-headed Parrot
#3 Surucua Trogon
#4 I would say Green Kingfisher, but I'm not sure.
#5 House Wren
 
I think #4 is an Amazon Kingfisher, since Green Kingfisher should have black spots below the rufous band where as Amazon is clear.
