    An oversight from 2020! This is the cousin of last week's tinamou, occurring at even higher elevations (4200 masl in this case) Posted 3 years ago

      Amazing observation, the bird is so special but looks so humble. Posted 3 years ago

    It looks sort of perpetually, slightly surprised. Maybe I'm being too anthropomorphic? Posted 3 years ago
