2018-04-17 Mapastepec savannas (chp), Mexico
Subspecies: cayennensis Adult. Pampa Honda. Rare in Mexico, but these two (2577) birds bred here last year, and will probably do it again now that they have arrived again this year. Apparently birds of the northern subspecies with limited black in the face and more cinnamon cast to the head. Compare with southern birds from Chile (2572-75). Rare |
