Hi again,
I still struggle with Xiphorhynchus, so I turn to the experts once again!.
These were seen a few days apart in the Bosque de Protección San Matias San Carlos, a low range east of the main Andean chain in Pasco, central Peru. The first three photos are one bird, seen at about 1000 masl, and the other three a second bird, seen about 750 masl.
Of course, they never made a peep.
This should be high enough to rule out Elegant (especially the one at 1000). Am I right in thinking it's Ocellated (Tschudi's)? The other option would be Olive-backed...
As always, many thanks in advance,
T
