Flame-faced tanager, Rio Ñambi, Colombia 7am, just a few minutes in, and this bird instantly made me forget about our horrible night. The day already a success, anything extra is a plus from here on. It&#039;s not an extremely rare bird, I just find it an awesome bird. Plus, after the flame-colored tanager, flame-rumped tanager and flame-throated warbler, flame-faced was still missing.<br />

  1. 7am, lol. I only get up that early on vacation ;P Posted 6 years ago
    1. Same here, typical on this trip was 5 - 5:30 am, mostly needed for birds. Whilst not a morning person, it's easier to get up during travel because I sleep more, not less. Posted 6 years ago
      1. Good point! I find it ironically *easy* (well, sort of) to get up early on vacation because I'm so excited to get going and explore. Posted 6 years ago
