A handsome flycatcher with remarkably long tail plumes in the male, the Long-tailed Tyrant is often found in loose groups perching high on exposed branches and performing occasional sallies for insects.

Turquoise Jay, Andean Guan, and Handsome Flycatcher were also new. Driving down to the foothills, we spent a couple of very productive hours birding near Narupa, with highlights being Lined Antshrike, Olive-chested Flycatcher, Lafresnaye’s Piculet, Olivaceous Greenlet, Black-billed Treehunter, and Dusky Spinetail. It was nearly dusk when we arrived at the banks of the Rio Napo to get the canoe to Casa del Suizo for the night, but the birding wasn’t done just yet. More
