Chalcothraupis ruficervix ruficervix -Prévost & Des Murs, 1842- (Golden-naped tanager / Tangara nuquirrufa)
The golden-naped tanager is found in South America from Colombia to Bolivia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and heavily degraded former forest. Six subspecies are recognised.
Golden-naped tanagers have plumage similar to those of the metallic-green tanager, the swallow tanager and the blue-and-black tanager as adults of all three species are primarily blue with black facial masking, however, the golden-naped tanager is the only primarily blue tanager with a golden or reddish crown patch or nape.

This was my third Lifer for the day (not the competition). I have never seen a Porcupine in the wild. We found this one snoozing along the road with no care to the world. Cerulean Warbler

Wikipedia: The black-naped monarch or black-naped blue flycatcher (Hypothymis azurea) is a slim and agile passerine bird belonging to the family of monarch flycatchers found in southern and south-eastern Asia. They are sexually dimorphic, with the male having a distinctive black patch on the back of the head and a narrow black half collar ("necklace"), while the female is duller with olive brown wings and lacking the black markings on the head. They have a call that is similar to that of the Asian paradise flycatcher, and in tropical forest habitats, pairs may join mixed-species foraging flocks. Populations differ slightly in plumage color and sizes.
The black-naped monarch breeds across tropical southern Asia from Iran and Sri Lanka east to Indonesia and the Philippines. This species is usually found in thick forests and other well-wooded habitats.

Opportunity Naps Henry is a hard charging playful kitten, he wears out after a bit and sometimes just naps where he is, found in North Carolina.
The Golden-naped Tanager is one of many colorful members of the speciose genus Tangara. The plumage is mostly turquoise or violet blue (depending on the subspecies) with tawny flanks and belly and a black face mask. On the hindcrown, some subspecies have a golden patch, giving rise to the English name for the species. In other subspecies, this patch is reddish, reflecting the specific epithet ruficervix ("red nape"). The species is found in the central and northern Andes in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia. Across this distribution, the species varies in plumage, and six subspecies are recognized. The Golden-naped Tanager is omnivorous and eats arthropods, fruit, Müllerian bodies, and nectar. Like many tanagers, they can be found in pairs or small groups but also take part in interspecific flocks.

The Chestnut-naped Antpitta is a typical ground-dwelling Grallaria, although it sings from a low perch, and which strongly prefers bamboo thickets in humid montane forest at 1900 to 3150 m. Its geographical range extends from north-central Colombia to northernmost Peru. As is typical of the Grallariidae, very little has been published to date concerning this species’ ecology, although the eggs have been described, and the Chestnut-naped Antpitta is presumably a fairly strict insectivore. Three species of the Chestnut-naped Antpitta are recognized and these differ principally in their crown colour and the intensity of the saturation to the underparts, although there are also some differences in their vocalizations. The basic plumage pattern, common to all three, is of gray underparts with a darker face, and rufous-brown upperparts, usually brightest and most rufescent over the crown and nape. doi.org/10.2173/bow.chnant1.01

Photo was taken January 2020 in Tanzania, in Arusha region, near Kakesio (specific GPS coordinates are within the EXIF data).
Note that I originally ID'ed this as an African Pipit (the EXIF data includes a tag for that ID), but it was subsequently pointed out to me that this was not a Pipit, and I agree. Thinking some type of Lark, but I am unable to determine a specific species.
Update - Some folks over at iNaturalist suggested this was a Rufous-naped Lark. That ID for this bird feels right.

Fynn is my perfect photo model, the only one who just wakes up from a nap, notices the camera and immediately is ready to smile. Cleo would put on her death stare and Linus simply wouldn't look at me at all.
Sorry for posting another photo of Fynn on the lawn. There is something about Fynn in the grass that always makes me point the camera at him.
I have only seen this one grey squirrel do this, but he or she seems to feel secure on this branch and has napped here multiple times over the last few years.😊
zzzzzz.... oh wait there's a squirrel running by!! ....The busy squirrel did catch his attention for a moment then back to sleep again. The sun slipped back beneath the clouds again after making a brief appearance to shine a little light on this sleepy owl.
