Today a trip to the Quetzal trail...a lot of wind and clouds. First I gave the option to see some birds on another good bird spot...in the hope that we get better weather on the trail later.
Turned out good , we even got sun and when we left around 2 pm, it started to get dark again, so that was great.
We did see a great display of two Three wattled Bellbirds, sitting next to each other and were making an impression to us , to each other and to probably a female close by.
I think I saw a female flying in the forest nearby those two machos...the movie that I did make is a kind of blurry, but you will get an idea... http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=242933452464044
Terry the birder(the other Terry) thought he did see a black and yellow Tanager. Unfortunately he did see the bird alone, the ID was very clear for him, we were on that moment on the Quetzal trail on a level of 1800 M...forest edge...so he was not really where he should be according the books...but well, sometimes we do have nice surprises.
