Gray-breasted Mountain-toucan
Stunning, ornately-colored toucan of high Andean cloud forest. While the general plumage pattern is similar to other mountain-toucans, the multicolored coral, black, and yellow-striped bill separates it from all others. Eye is yellow in most of Peru, dark elsewhere in its range. Typically encountered in pairs or small groups that forage in the forest canopy. Often noisy, giving long, rising screams or short, excited yaps.
These images were taken in the Caldas Region of Colombia while on a photo tour guided by Neotropic Photo Tours. March 13, 2022
