February 1, 1995

Notes made when touring Monteverde Reserve, 5:30 am to 10 am, with

 
Black Guan [Chamaepetes unicolor]
Nightingale Thrush-saw nest in the small dirt hole, with baby fluff balls inside
Female Resplendent Quetzal (male later) [Pharomachrus mocinno]
Emerald Toucanet [Aulacorhynchus prasinus]
Silver pronged barbet?
Species travel in loose flocks at all levels of the forest, following food
Brief glimpse of orange billed Trogon. The group ahead got better look.
Tufted Flycatcher [Mitrephanes phaeocercus] on branch, flying out then back to branch
Heard Black Guan call, thud thud thud...
At Hummingbird Gallery, Purple Throated Mountain Gem [Lampornis (castaneoventris) calolaema], Violet Sabrewing [Campylopterus hemileucurus]

(These are the birds I got a good look at, we saw many many more that Eric named for us)
