Hi everyone, I have been mostly offline the past month leading tours in Ecuador and the Galapagos, it's good to be back home and able to comment and post again.  Here's one from Guango Lodge in Ecuador.  This guy comes in to worms most days there.

Great-looking bird and image quality despite the high ISO.

Nice bird and difficult to see and take picture of it. The setting shows.

Great image. These guys are skulkers, you did really well to capture him at the high ISO. Log nice too.

Excellent bird, nice pose and perch, Nate. It might be the first post of this bird here.

Based on your techs, it was nearly dark. Expert job of not letting it show. Superb, and well worth studying.
