Out of hand

With a real lens now, I am excited to see almost any bird again! Even this boring Common Tody Flycatcher, how common:


Or this filthy Slaty-tailed Trogon...




...who kept lookin' at me funny like.


We caught this guy later on in the day (Western Slaty Antshrike):

Common Tody-Flycatcher

We caught one of these today, and only one other since we've been here. They're fairly common but general stick to heights above our nets. They're also loud, especially for their size, at around 6.5 grams...
