11th of February..cloudforest 1750 m..the three wattled Bellbirds are back and sound of a ornate Hawk Eagle immature

It was a nice blue sky day, it was nice to see the Three wattled Bellbirds again and to hear them.
We had to work a little bit to find them.
They did stay late last year..until beginning of October and 3 weeks ago I did hear them nearby our farm already and on a 1700 m level...but now that are totally back...so early!

The long tailed silky Flycatchers are busy to make nests and also we did see a couple of streak headed Woodcreepers making a nest,

(on our farm ..the long billed Starthroat is sitting on her nest..second nest of this season, she is using her old nest ...like usual)

I never did see such a HUGE group of yellow bellied Siskins together in top of the trees, singing...I took a picture, but could only take 4 of them , but I think there were at least 20...25 together...

Then I did hear a sound of a bird , that I did hear last year same time... could not find it. I did ask my colleage Cesar of Finca Lerida.. and he thought it was the call of a ornate Hawk Eagle..I did cheked it and yes that was through.. long live Facebook and youtube...
