Sooty-capped puffbird - side view, Uraba, Colombia Endemic to western Colombia where it has a small range in which it is uncommon to see. Once found though, it's not a nervous bird. Like most puffbirds, it is quite stationary and does not flee easily. In this partly obstructed shot I want to show how deeply red their eyes are.
