Birding the Iwokrama Forest, Guyana

Our first day's birding in interior Guyana produced Crimson Fruitcrow and roosting Long-tailed Potoo – close enough that even I could get photos with my decidedly non-professional camera. The Fruitcrow provided prolonged and low-level views and was mobbed by passerines since, unlike most cotingas, it is not entirely frugivorous.



But we kept birding...
