Name a Bird You've Photographed (5 Viewers)

Well if David's pic is uncorrected at 4583 - and I've had at least one mislabelled pic that I corrected - Red links to Fulvous any way & this would be 4584 but on the basis that it is likely to be corrected - I will also use breasted:-

4585. Spot-breasted Wren Pheugopedius maculipectus Costa Rica 25th February 2023

Away for a few days but I will play catch up when back.

All the best

2223. Hepatic Tanager, Panama
I'd like to make the spreadsheet correct by correcting this entry from last April. I failed to check the IOC list, and attached a photo from Panama, which I referred to as Hepatic Tanager. As a result the spreadsheet has Piranga hepatica, Hepatic Tanager, instead of Tooth-billed Tanager, Piranga lutea, as the photo showed. Attached here is a Hepatic Tanager photo from Arizona, USA in August 2015. I hope this is acceptable to correct my mistake. This way, Tooth-billed Tanager, P. lutea is still available, as is Red Tanager, P. flava, but Hepatic Tanager, P. hepatica has been played.

The binomial, Prunella montanella is from latin for a small mountain, so continuing with the mountains:

Lark used 4593 Stark's Lark - Spizocorys starki - Namibia
Spizocorys would be translated as 'finch-lark', so here's a sparrow with a bill like a finch (Rhincospiza):
