shots like these remind me that i need to learn how to do noise reduction

this is Cocha Antshrike male, a rare endemic found in wet lowland forest (when he is found at all) that i photo'd from the canoe = fast shutter speed & moving bird (he was singing & hopping) = ISO 25,600

this antbird has a stark black male while the female has more colorful chestnut or cinnamon paired with her black "hood"

A coal black bird loiters among relatively heavy forest greenery. This is a Cocha Antshrike male, we were not lucky enough to spot the female. Sani, Ecuador. Photo by Peachfront. An Ecuador endemic or near-endemic that can be hard to find but this one was singing.
