[QUOTE="ovenbird43, post: 2007716, member: 64478"] [B]10 Jan- Guango and Papallacta[/B] I was feeling much better this morning, knowing that the next day I would be heading down to the Amazon to work. I watched the feeders, seeing most of yesterday's birds as well as adding [B]Glowing Puffleg[/B]. The couple's driver showed up a few hours late from Quito, I guess there had been a miscommunication, but finally around 10 am we were headed off to Papallacta. Our first stop was a road behind the town of Papallacta, where a Crescent-faced Antpitta had been reported recently. We dipped on that as well as a few target hummingbirds, but finally when we stopped for lunch we were visited by a nice mixed flock, containing [B]Spectacled Redstart[/B], [B]Pearled Treerunner[/B], [B]Black-backed Bush-Tanager[/B], [B]Agile Tit-Tyrant[/B], [B]Black-headed [/B]and [B]Superciliated Hemispingus[/B], and [B]Citrine Warbler[/B]. Then we headed farther up into the pass and drove along some dirt roads. Some of the highlights were [B]Tawny Antpitta[/B] (seen this time!),[B] Red-crested Cotinga[/B], [B]Andean Tit-Spinetail[/B], and [B]Bar-winged[/B] and [B]Stout-billed Cinclodes[/B]. Around mid-afternoon we left for Quito, and I began repacking all my stuff in preparation for the Amazon. So that's it! I have a few more videos to share once I get them uploaded. Tom and I are headed back to Ecuador soon, Christmas day in fact, this time I'm taking him to Tiputini for 2 weeks as I begin my second field season. Jeez I'm glad I finally finished this thread just in time to head off again! I'll try not to take a year to finish the next thread. [/QUOTE]
