Hi all, Last week, on a birding expedition in the west andes of Piura Perú (Bosque de Mijal, Chalaco, 2500 msns) we saw a male of the Straw Backed Tanager,...
Hi Diego: Is there any possibility that the Tangara could have been Silver backed Tanager Tangara viridicollis ? How good was the view you had? and Urothraupis...
hola Diego I suppose anything is possible. However, as for the tangara: why was it not T.viridicollis? That species is pretty common in the region so perhaps...

Hi BirdingPeru, In august 2004, I've caught 3 different individuals of Myiobus, in Masiapo, Puno department, at an elevation of 1270 m. You can find a picture...
Hi Fabrice, Between the elevation, and the difference in lighting (and its effect on color saturation), I see no reason to question your initial identification...
Thank you very much Dan for this confirmation. you righ that the flash light don't help for the identification.. by, Fabrice ... From: barbetboy To:...
OK Fabrice, Dan, I will go by your identification then. But Dan, when you write: "Myiobius3 is very rich rufous below", didn't you intend to write instead:...
Hi Sjoerd, ... didn't you intend to write instead: "Myiobius3 is very rich tawny below"? ... I suppose I could have said that too. From the appearance of the...
Dan, I'll bite. I thought Sanderling, but it's the wrong plumage for that season. It could be a Baird's Sandpiper looking redder than it should, but Dec-Jan...
