Parker's antbird (Cercomacroides parkeri) - 13Aug2024

Parker's Antbird is a Colombian endemic with limited range across all three of the central Andean cordilleras.  It is one of 6 birds in the Cercomacroides genus. It has a status of Least Concern based on its wide range within Colombia, but it probably is not safe considering habitat loss.  Like most Antbirds, the male and female have different coloration.  I was lucky enough to see and photograph both although I can certainly improve on these photos.
