Not the most spectacular bird we saw on the trip, but a beauty nonetheless. The branch she is perched on makes this look like a feeder-station photograph. It's not. The bird was found, with her fledgling, along a small trail we traversed on our second morning in the rainforest.
Female Shining honeycreeper (Cyanerpes lucidus)
From my challenge photo blog entry, this is how we could identify the fledgling Shining honeycreeper hidden under the leaf.
