Field Notes

Description:

plump, colorful orange, yellow and black bird

Habitat:

cloudforest, 2400m

Notes:

I spotted this flying around the accommodation of Santuario Otun Quimbaya. It's one of the coolest birds I've ever seen. It was high up in a tree so I've cropped the first few pics for a better look.
