One of the most colourful and beautiful birds from Costa Rica and one of my favourites.
Seeing and photographing a Quetzal and the Chlorophonia was at top of my wish list. It wasn’t at all easy to find, but finally, on the last day of our stay in Costa Rica, we had the privilege of seeing both, and simultaneously. While we had the splendid Quetzal in front of us, behind us there was a group of Chlorophonia hopping between tree branches. They didn’t allow us many opportunities. The lack of light and the terrain inclination made it very difficult to obtain pictures, but it truly was a unique and unforgettable moment.
Taken in the Costa Rica Highlands.
Mide 34 cm. y pesa 65 grs. Es relativamente pequeño, con un patrón muy llamativo. La cola presenta raquetas grandes al final del raquis desnudo y largo.
Los adultos presentan una máscara angosta negra que se extiende hasta los auriculares, la ceja larga y la lista angosta por debajo de la parte anterior de la máscara de color turquesa claro. El centro de la garganta es negro con un lista turquesa a los lados. El centro de la espalda y la zona possterior del área detrás del ojo es de color rufo. El abdomen es rufo canela pálido y el resto de la cabeza, el cuello y el cuerpo es verde oliváceo, con la coronilla más oscura. Las remeras y las timoneras e incluso las raquetas son verde azulado claro con la punta negra conspicua. El pico y las patas son negras.
Los ejemplares juveniles presentan la coronilla verde azulado fusco con las puntas de las plumas más claras. La ceja es turquesa, muy corta y angosta. El verde del cuerpo es más azulado y menos oliváceo. Presenta muy poco o nada de rufo en la espalda y no presenta negro y turquesa en la garganta. El abdomen es más claro y opaco, y las timoneras, incluso las raquetas, son más angostas y opacas.
This small warblerlike bird is rich cinnamon below and gray above. The namesake rufous brow is fairly obvious but blends into the face. Bill is sharply pointed. Sexes alike. Singles or pairs are uncommon in shrubby woodlands and edges in northern Colombia and extreme western Venezuela.
This one was photographed in Colombia guided by Neotropic Photo Tours.

This guy made my head explode trying to ID him. I am not sure I have properly identified. Please if YOU know the ID of this guy let me know.
I've finally got round to visiting a few 'celebrity' birds this year with the latest being the black-browed albatross at RSPB Bempton Cliffs. It took a couple of visits but it was well worth the wait, what a bird!
wishing everyone a beautiful & lovely weekend...

Partially Obscured. I thought I'd publish since the eye, part of the white eyebrow mark and the unique "chevron" marks on the wing leading edge are visible. These birds were once commonplace.
