4th of April a glorious bird day on the sendero los Quetzales with 3 bird watchers

 

 

The  picture of the spangle cheeked Tanager is taken by Mr.Paul Yorke. The bird was really hiding himself , I was amazed that he still could  take a picture of this bird.
We saw a couple of Indigo buntings that day , which is rare and not often seen! Stll a big Hawk migration. The open area in the beginning of the Quetzal trail is really a great spot to see  the Hawk migration. Also we saw the three wattled  Bell bird. Lately I see a lot of black Swifts in that area, two years ago I only saw them around the Fortuna area, in between continental divide and Willy Mazu.
We saw a nest of a tufted Flycatcher.(same nest I saw with Bill Elrick 23th of March)
I will ask Paul if he can send me the pics of the Tufted Flycatcher and  the indigo Buntings. The indigo Bunting picture is from the internet.
