Title: Rufous-bellied Seedsnipe (Ecuador)
Post by: Glenn Bartley on February 24, 2011, 10:47:35 am

These guys live high up in the Andes above the tree line. Despite their beautiful plumage they can be difficult to find! We got lucky with my first group in Ecuador and had a pair feeding right in front of us. It was fantastic!

Beautiful plumage captured beautifully.

How come you did not get a shot of both birds??? (just kidding).
