Spot-breasted Wren C-RICA SER 2
This photo is the final upload in my December 2015 or second Costa Rica series.
This bird was located on northern Costa Rica at the extreme southern limit of its Central American range.
It was very difficult to photograph, as it stayed near the forest floor in a dense tangle of dead fallen branches, and only occasionally and briefly came into partial view. This situation is well represented by the photo.

Semi-deciduous forest

Near Rio Celeste, Bijagua, Costa Rica
Date taken
8 December 2015
Scientific name
Pheugopedius maculipectus

LOL Ronald, you did well to get such a view by the sounds of it!!! And this is only the second picture to come into the Gallery!

Very well done - you had a grand time in CR, didn't you.
 
A very good habitat shot, Ronald, and you did well to focus so clearly through the twigs.
