The next bird was a bird I really wanted to see, the Scarlet-bellied Mountain-Tanager. Soon some more birds appeared, especially hummingbirds called everywhere, so I got also Mountain Velvetbreast, Black-tailed Trainbearer, Sparkling Violetear, Sapphire-vented Puffleg and I think also the green-tailed Trainbearer. A few Speckle-faced Parrots flew over, which I hadn't thought to exist at such heights. Later I heard some strange noise that showed to be a pair of Andean Guans, so I got my 3rd species of Guans in 2 days. Some ground-dwelling birds didn't show well enough to identify them and apart from Azara's Spinetail and some very beautiful Yellow-breasted Brush-Finches there wasn't too much more.
But this was enough for the short time I went birding, because I also spent some time with my family...
