Observation details
INCREDIBLE bird of the trip for me. Lifer!!! We were playing tape and heard them responding downslope with a chattery jay/wren-like call. We closely and quietly crept down slope and after a while they came into view across the slope in front of us. They moved so quickly across open spaces, with super speedy hops. Very large, striking antpittas, rare in the foothills. Black crown, big black bill, rusty cheek, brown above, scalloped black/white/brown below. Much more chestnut below than I imagined. Incredible legendary bird. Lord I love antpittas. Able to view one or the other several times as they sat partially hidden, even got one in the scope.
