I will confess. I LOVE Antbirds!!! But unfortunately these little buggers are incredibly difficult to photograph. Denizens of the forest understorey they skulk about in the dark realms. The best chance is usually at an antswarm. This guy however was just hanging out in his territory. I was pretty happy with this one given the very difficult shooting conditions.


Hope you enjoy!
