White-bellied Hummingbird, Amazilia chionogaster (Amazilia chionogaster)

Here is one of the great birds Carlos Chuquiln of IKAM Expeditions found for Patricia and I on a stunning trip across the Andes, from Chiclayo to Moyobamba. This was coming in to hummingbird feeders at a cafe near the museum in Leimebamba.

That's a super picture you've taken of this hummer Jeff - posed nicely there, didn't he.

It's a while since we saw one of these coming in and I think it really deserves a place in The Opus, so I'll upload it to the article shortly. Many thanks for sharing it with us lad.
