9 December 2012, bird trip, two spots

I had company of a Dutch lady with a big camera. She like to make pictures of birds...so it was a morning with birds who needed to sit on THE good spot, in good light.
Birds in the shade...no priority.
Difficult sometimes, the birds they don't sit usual on the spots where we want to have them.
But we did see nice birds and I think she took some need pictures...
I did take some pictures, but I am totally not so good in it.
First Quetzal sighting for this season . Nearby our house a nice Bat Falcon , never saw a Bat Falcon in this area, so that was nice. Two cute black and yellow silky Flycatchers and a nice Red headed Barbet...good birds...ah well they are all good...
