Cyanocorax yncas
Blue green bird, with black throat and cheeks and yellow breast. It's neck is bright blue and it has the same bright blue coloured patch under its eye. It has a long tail and it's eyes are yellow. It seems to have a bit of fluffy hair on top of his beak. I think it is some kind of Tanager but I can not find the right one. In Caracas you do not want to walk with your nice zoom camera so I was restricted to my small Canon with hardly any zoom. Sorry not so good quality but still a lovely bird to spot.
Cerro del Avila, Altamira, Caracas, Venezuela.
There were two or three in the trees near the entree of del Avila. I was very excited but the locals that were there did not seem to be as excited as me. They called this a "Cachaquito" which I believe is a Tanager but as I said before, which one I don't know. If anyone out there does know please send me an ID.
