A estos chaparritos e hiperactivos pajaritos se los conoce como "pinchaflores" o "flowerpiercers" en inglés; nombres muy apropiados cuando nos tomamos el tiempo de observar su comportamiento... ágiles ladrones que gracias a un puntiagudo gancho en su pico, perforan las bases de la flores para tomar la dulce recompensa del néctar, sin polinizarlas.

Cotopaxi is considered one of the highest most beautiful active volcanoes in the world and it's one of Ecuador's trademarks...nothing like a walk around Limpiopungo lake to enjoy magnificent views of this dangerous giant.

The Chocó is a diverse bioma that stretches among south Panama, most of it through Colombia and northwest Ecuador; this Rose-faced Parrot is considered a chocó endemic (found just between Ecuador and Colombia, on the western slopes of the Andes), and to my liking, one of the most strikingly beautiful parrot there is.

Feeding stations, you might love them or hate them, but there's no doubt without these fruity rewards, watching and photographing some rare species would be a matter of luck and perfect timing.
This colorful bird is a toucan from the eastern slopes of Ecuador, the Gray-breasted Mountain Toucan photographed at Guango Lodge.

Common Potoo (Nyctibius griseus)
A potentially common nocturnal bird, but bearer of an incredible camouflage, completed by the habit of perching on top of broken branches that tend to show the same color and patterns.

Glistening-green Tanager (Chlorochrysa phoenicotis)

An splendid jewel from the western Andean slopes of Colombia and Ecuador, difficult to properly describe as its uniform glossy emerald green color is unique among tanager, so you better see it by yourself to judge its shimmering hue.

While visiting the family hacienda in Bolivar province I had the chance of finding some beautiful orchids along the living fences.
