Andean Cock-of-the-rock in Bolivia...

 

Photo by Dave Kemp
Andean Cock-of-the-Rock
(Rupicola peruvianus)
My friend Dave Kemp, from British Columbia, who has been sharing with me many of his bird photos, from Canada's west coast, surprised me again yesterday when he sent me the photo above of a bird he photographed in Cartagena, Columbia.   The bird's somewhat alliterative name is the Andean Cock-of-the-Rock.   It is also known by the name 'Tunki' and is about 13" long.  The day before yesterday I was pleased to show bird photos by Dave from Kenya.   It seems this birder-photographer has been blessed with some exotic travels.   Many thanks for sharing your photographs Dave.
Please comment if you wish.
