Chestnut-backed Thornbird, Phacellodomus dorsalis (Phacellodomus dorsalis)

Here is one of the Northern Peru endemics Patricia and I found with Carlos Chuquiln of IKAM Expeditions on a stunning trip across the Andes, from Chiclayo to Moyobamba. This was at an eBird Hotspot called 'Endemic Point' on the road from Cajamarca to Leimebamba.
