I do have a real soft spot for the "ant" birds Thibaud.

A wonderful find for you my friend - I've now added it to the Opus article. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful picture with us.

So do I! If I stay in Peru long enough, I hope to eventually see, and photograph, every antbird species the country has!
