Black-capped Tanager
Another of the beautiful tanagers from Ecuador. This one was shot at Refugio Paz de las Aves. Great variation in the appearance of this species from one lodge to the next even though the environment seems similar.

He's quite stunning Jim!!! And what a wonderful picture you've taken of him.

I do feel this is a clearer image than the current one in The Opus, so I'll upload it to the article shortly. Many thanks for sharing it with us lad.
 
A beautiful bird, wonderfully captured, fabulous detail.
