Breakfast at Bellavista, Ecuador
This was the scene that greeted me one morning looking from the balcony at Bellavista Lodge in Ecuador, with Blue-winged Mountain Tanager, Beryl-spangled Tanager and Flame-faced Tanager competing for attention.

Golden-headed Quetzal, Ecuador
I watched these birds lurking high in the canopy of the cloud forest at Mindo, generally inconspicuous despite their bright colours. Occasionally a shaft of sunlight would break through the mist and highlight the metallic emerald iridescence of their plumage.
