    I love Hylophylax antbirds, they're so chunky and boldly patterned. I met my first ones in Panama last year, then saw these in February, but by that time my camera had broken down. And then last month I finally managed to get a photo!
    They're not that shy but unlike many other antbirds, they tend not to reply to playback so it's all about playing hide and seek with them in the undergrowth that they favor.     Posted 4 years ago
