Tawny Antpitta

Free Range Antpitta

We drove on down to Lake Mikakucha, another major water source for Quito, to look for any waterfowl.  There were some but they were so far away it was impossible to ID them, even through a scope.  As we stood along the lake a Tawny Antpitta came sauntering up to us – a free-range Antpitta!  Nobody put out worms for it, or called it in – it was just walking around, minding its own business.  As luck would have it, this was our final Lifer of the trip!
