La historia
This Black-winged Saltator (Saltator atripennis) at Villa de Aurora near Dapa, in the hills above Cali, Valle del Cauca, Colombia, at about 1,980 meters. It has a mostly black head with a long, wide white eyebrow and a small white patch behind the ear, bright olive-green upperparts, and dull black wings and tail. Both sexes look alike. It is found only in Colombia and Ecuador, in forest edges, shrubby clearings and plantations, and in Colombia it ranges from 600 to 2,300 meters. Its nest is a deep cup of roots, moss and leaves. IUCN lists it as Least Concern.
I made this frame with a Canon R5 and the RF 100-500mm f/4.5-7.1L, at 1/350 sec, f/6.7, ISO 3200, −0,5 EV. The San Antonio cloud forest at Kilometer 18 is recognized as an Important Bird Area and a Key Biodiversity Area, with the Multicolored Tanager as its symbol species.
