Thanks, what do you mean by desaturated? They aren’t usually that colorful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Cochrane Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 While to someone not that familiar with neotropic birds, this would be considered a pretty meh photo, this might be the photo this trip I'm the most proud of. This is a Thicket Antpitta, a bird that is very rarely seen, usually only heard. When you see it it's usually only a quick glimpse deep in a thicket, but I managed to get a photo showing the whole bird. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look on eBird there’s literally no good shots of this species.  No neotropic experience here, but I’ve heard of their secretive reputation. Super well done. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
