[QUOTE="Birdingcraft, post: 2204362, member: 55810"] Quebrada Gonzalez was pretty quiet yesterday but we still saw some nice birds. Very few vultures or other raptors in the sky and no King! Highlights were: [B]Spectacled Owl[/B]- I fully expected to focus my bins on a hawk-eagle after seeing a large raptor fly into a tree and was surprised to see the face of a Spectacled Owl looking at us. Great bird and one I had never seen before at this site! Purplish-backed Quail-Dove- One heard was too far away to call in. Lattice-tailed Trogon- Another distant heard only. Double-toothed Kite- Perched bird near the parking lot let us watch it at leisure. Spectacled Antpitta- Two heard and none seen. No big mixed flock activity either but some tanager action. Overall, a pretty quiet and unlucky day but thats how it is at Quebrada Gonzalez. The birding can be excellent one day and dreadfully quiet the next but you always see something good. [/QUOTE]
