Observation details
These shots show exposure effects quite dramatically. First three shots show a page gray head with a messy looking throat/auricular transition and a strong loral contrast. It also shows how bright the rear flanks are. The last shots in the shade show much more contrast in the malar area but also show there is little contrast between the head and the back. My guess is that this is an alticola Blue-headed, but would like someone with more experience to confirm this ID.
