Pied Puffbird, Uraba, Colombia We were lucky to find this puffbird in the open just around a corner of the forest. Out of 4 black and white puffbirds found in Colombia, this one stands out for its pied crown shown on the photo. As with most puffbirds, it is described as &quot;rarely moves&quot;, which makes it a great subject.
