Tanager and Tawny-faced Gnatwren were all seen on our way back. Halfway down Winnie spotted two big birds perched on a branch a few meters in front of us. It was a pair of Great Jacamars! The pair (photo) was very cooperative and we had some outstanding views. Further down we heard a Chocó Tapaculo singing and we run into a very interesting canopy flock. The flock consisted mainly of large birds and we watched it for about 30 min. More
