Xenornis

From November 6 to 10, Jacobo Ortega took a small group of Venezuela Auduboners to the Chiriquí Highlands. Highlight was a tree full of Resplendent Quetzals seen on the 8th at the entrance of Respingo trail above Cerro Punta, with three adult males and 16 females and immatures. Also at the same tree was a male Three-wattled Bellbird. On November 10 at Macho de Monte, Cuesta de Piedra they found two Crested Guans.

José Tejada spent the weekend at Fortuna. The best place he visited was Cable Car Road, a short trail near the STRI cabin. He had a male Bare-necked Umbrellabird, as well as a few Three-wattled Bellbirds, Chiriquí Quail-Dove, White-bellied Mountain-Gem and White-crowned Manakin. He also saw a female Selasphorus hummingbird that might have been a Glow-throated, or maybe something else, around Finca La Suiza.
