    Colombia's Rare birds - as they become accessible

    Update on access to the Paisa Antpitta: For those self-driving, note that at least one of the roads north of this area is very much not safe to drive due to security issues! Please only arrange a visit to the area with a local guide, either through Santiago or one of the other Colombia tour...

    Colombia's Rare birds - as they become accessible

    I considered this, but my reasoning for limiting this particular thread were two fold. First, most of what you and fbeeldens mention is reasonably accessible information that I believe folks can access with a small/moderate amount of digging. That being said, the range of great birds in Southern...

    Colombia's Rare birds - as they become accessible

    Hello Birdforum world, Colombia is a country near and dear to me and as I have a fairly consistent finger on the pulse of the birding scene down there I thought I would start a thread to update what birds are now gettable that have been off-limits/are new to science. The first installment will...
