Line-fronted Canastero in Polylepis right at the top adn Puna Tapacula between boulders. The main target was the Ash-breasted Tit-Tyrant. I missed this on my 1st trip but found a group on a 3rd level and my second trip. Instead of walking up to the Polylepis from the top of the second waterfall, walk along the right side of the stream. Another waterfall is visible to you left and a small stream comes down on the right. More
