Split from Blue-throated Piping-Guan, and not rare at Los Volcanes.

RAZOR-BILLED CURASSOW (Mitu tuberosum)

Wow! The front car heading down to Los Volcanes got to see this bird on the road ahead. Unfortunately, it disappeared into the forest before others could see it, but we heard it booming the day we departed.

BLUE-TUFTED STARTHROAT (Heliomaster furcifer)

Scolopacidae (Sandpipers and Allies)

STILT SANDPIPER (Calidris himantopus) [b]

Eurypygidae (Sunbittern)

SUNBITTERN (Eurypyga helias)

Diane and Kathy glimpsed this species on one of our walks on the main road at Los Volcanes. Shame we couldn't all get on it! Their description was intriguing, though, as it suggested the Andean form meridionalis, which is not (as far as I know) documented in Bolivia!

This one was in the airport grasslands at Santa Cruz.

A crazy "roost" of dozens on the ground at Laguna Guapilo!

PLUMBEOUS KITE (Ictinia plumbea)

CINEREOUS HARRIER (Circus cinereus)

SHARP-SHINNED HAWK (Accipiter striatus)

The bird we saw in the foothills near the main road as we departed Los Volcanes was a Sharp-shinned, but I'm not positive which form. Based on where we were, it's more likely to be "plain-breasted" but I can't rule out "rufous-thighed."

SOLITARY EAGLE (Buteogallus solitarius)

After a brief flyby, we were rewarded with nice perched views of an adult on the road through the deciduous forest south of Comarapa.

ROADSIDE HAWK (SOUTHERN) (Rupornis magnirostris saturatus)

HARRIS'S HAWK (Parabuteo unicinctus)

WHITE-RUMPED HAWK (Parabuteo leucorrhous)

CHANNEL-BILLED TOUCAN (YELLOW-RIDGED) (Ramphastos vitellinus culminatus)

Picidae (Woodpeckers)

OCELLATED PICULET (Picumnus dorbignyanus)

This and the next species get "fuzzy" around where they come together. We had this one in the mountains of Santa Cruz for sure... not so sure about La Paz.

WHITE-WEDGED PICULET (Picumnus albosquamatus)

This species is found in the lowlands of Santa Cruz, but the type locality (the place from where the species was first described to science) is in the foothills of La Paz, and I'm pretty sure that the piculet we had around our lodging near Coroico was actually this species, not Ocellated.

WHITE WOODPECKER (Melanerpes candidus)

Nice views at Lomas de Arena.

WHITE-FRONTED WOODPECKER (Melanerpes cactorum)

In the arid intermontane valleys, this species is closely tied to columnar cacti.

STRIPED WOODPECKER (Dryobates lignarius)

Wow, what a great experience watching these birds staging before heading to their evening roost at Frente Roja!

BOLIVIAN SLATY-ANTSHRIKE (Thamnophilus sticturus)

This near-endemic was easy to see our first morning by the Rio Pirai.

VARIABLE ANTSHRIKE (Thamnophilus caerulescens)

Just managed to hook and reel in this endemic on the road departing Frente Roja Reserve.

CREAMY-BREASTED CANASTERO (RUSTY-VENTED) (Asthenes dorbignyi dorbignyi)

BERLEPSCH'S CANASTERO (Asthenes berlepschi) [E]

A disappointing showing at Sorata, probably due to the leaflessness of the shrubs thanks to the drought.

LINE-FRONTED CANASTERO (Asthenes urubambensis)

I think this may be the first time we've had this one on the tour (at least while I've been guiding). It was in the shrubby grassland at the Coroico reservoir road.

Our usual, extroverted friend came in to check us out at Pongo.

AMAZONIAN UMBRELLABIRD (Cephalopterus ornatus)

A female showed for us at breakfast at the La Selva resort near Coroico.

SCIMITAR-WINGED PIHA (Lipaugus uropygialis)

This came together well, and what a stonker! A species that is relatively seldom seen, but we've got a special spot that has been reliable. Two birds gave us a great show.

A species that, as it is presently defined, is distributed from Mexico to Argentina in cloud forests. No doubt, it will be split up in the future, so bear in mind that we saw subspecies argentinus in Santa Cruz, fulvigularis in Cochabamba, and bolivianus in La Paz.
