    Hi Ferdy, your photos are actually of Black-faced Dacnis: note the black mask that extends all the way to the back of the neck and the turquoise rather than deep blue shade of the male, extending onto the flanks.
    And the female is grayer below, with a longer pointed bill than it would in White-bellied.     Posted 4 years ago
