Plate-billed Mountain-Toucan

They can watch me work (Contest)

On July 3, 2017, the Tour Leaders for Field Guides were hoping to see a Plate-billed Mountain-Toucan somewhere along the walk. Sure enough on the road below Bellavista Cloud Forest Lodge in Tandayapa, Ecuador they spotted this bird working away. The group watched it for over 10 minutes, going partially in and out of the hole. At some point it had a small stick in its mouth but do not recall and my photos do not tell me if this bird placed it in the hole or taking it out. The mix of colors and the bill to me are amazing.
