Saffron-crowned Tanager, Manu Road, Peru

 

I can thank one of the common landslides that occur along the Manu Road for this shot. We got stuck along the Manu Road since many trucks ahead of us could not cross the landslide. In the mean time a mixed flock moved with tanagers, flycatchers and flowerpiercers. We were delayed by several hours and were lucky to finally get through to make the boat to Amazonia lodge. If we couldn't get to the boat by sunset we would have had to sleep in the van!
