  1. Yellow-thighed Finch

    Yellow-thighed Finch

    Most of the time this species looked much darker (except for the yellow boxers, of course), due to the rain, the shade, etc. But the one time it came out into the open, it really did look much paler on some of the plumage. We had up to three birds at the same time. They were very willing to...

  2. Flame-colored Tanager

    Flame-colored Tanager

    I usually don't choose a bird straight from the back. I felt this one deserved it, and I also wanted to point at the tiny white corners of the tail. That is supposed to be a good field mark for this species according to the field guide.

  3. Flame-colored Tanager

    Flame-colored Tanager

    I believe this to be a female of this species. It seems a little iffy looking at images what the difference really is between young males and females.

  5. Violet Sabrewing male

    Violet Sabrewing male

    This clearly is a dominant hummingbird in western Panama, and it does not matter if you are a Talamanca Hummer (chased off) or a wasp (whether bill moves past or through does not seem to matter).

  6. The contortionist

    The contortionist

    This Flame-throated Warbler was hanging in the branch above it and we therefore see the upperside of its tail on this photo, but it is turning such that it is the underside of the bill that we see.

    Stripe-tailed Hummingbird

    This one was clearly the less powerful bird when the Talamanca Hummingbird came by.

    It was really dark when I photographed this bird (in total we had three species of nightingale-thrush at this cabin, but only photos of two).

    This would be a female of subspecies costaricensis which would be the more yellow/greenish form of this species. The id has been discussed in the id forum

    Cacomistle

    The people managing the cabin asked if we wanted bananas to put out for the Kinkajou. Of course! Once seeing the images, I started to have doubt, and I am now convinced the animal was a Cacomistle. The photo here was taken though a window, I have tried to remove some of the glare from a flash...
