Don't recall seeing any of these excellent images of some excellent birds before on Ribble to Amazon. The Green-headed Tanager has some humour attached....'have a banana'.

Hope your forthcoming trip to Brazil is a great success Colin, can't see how it can fail to be.

Hi Pete,
Yes, I love going to REGUA and can't wait to get amongst those endemics again. Only a couple of weeks to wait ....
