My first thought was Red-crowned Ant-Tanager. Any notes taken on habitat, behaviour, voice etc?

Lots of ctrl++++ showed me a darker cheek crescent and a toothed looking upper mandible when I first saw the pic. Head shape/size also looked better for a Piranga tanager than an ant-tanager to my eyes. The habitat on the image doesn't look dark undergrowth at all to me but fairly high thick branches with lots of light behind, but if you saw it skulking in dense dark undergrowth I may be wrong.

Hi
Well I see what you mean about the light, I had to overexposure harshly to get a shot, but yes I guess there was light behind so not as dark as I thought. Under that growth is a fairly dark deep stream bed and the bird came up from there and I snapped it, but I had been watching it in the dark area.
thanks for your help, I may see him again
