Rock Earthcreeper, Bolivia 19 August 2006.

Birds seen in the Comarapa area after the Red-fronted Macaws included Olive-crowned Crescentchest, Red-tailed Comet, Rusty-browed Warling-finch, Bolivian Warbling-finch, Bolivian Earthcreeper, Bolivian Blackbird and Giant Antshrike.
Today it was time to move on to Cochabamba (a long journey) stopping in the cloud forests of Cerro Siberia and tree-line for Black-throated Thistletail before passing onto the more arid valleys near Cochababa. This Rock Earthcreeper was found in a likely spot (deep ravines with earthy banks for nesting) above Pojo at lunctime with Grey-bellied Flowerpiercer and Citron-headed Yellow-finch seen in the late afternoon.
