Cool spotting! I would like to invite you to my new mission for the birds of Ecuador: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/4508...
Black Guans are certainly closely-related but restricted to Panama and Costa Rica. This guy was photographed in Ecuador.
great capture. I have gotten a shot of this bird but the picture is MIA!!
Nvm...didn't notice the chestnut belly
Looks more like a black guan...
Nice portrait!
Gracias!
Grandiosa captura ::
