Carlos Rohrbacher Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Hi Sebastian, gret pictures, a lot of rare pings. I'm looling for this species to make pictures in last august, but I fail. Your friend have pictures 'open habitat'? These pictures are made in Colombia? Regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UtricSeb Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi Carlos, Yes, the pictures were taken a month ago at a natural reserve called "Parque Nacional Natural Puracé", my friend has pictures of the general habitat too. Let me know if you need that I put you in contact with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Rohrbacher Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Hi Sebastian. A reserve in Colombia, is a nice country. Is a good place to visit ... ... in future. I saw pictures in http://guiaturisticadepuracecoconuco.blogspot.com/ Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando Rivadavia Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Cool, more pics of this rare species, thanks!! Looking on Google Earth, ~3200m doesn't look like it has many good habitats for CPs, I would imagine habitats above 3600m would be better - but this may be too cold. I know so little about these Andean CP habitats, still so much to learn... Thanks again, Fernando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UtricSeb Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Hi Fer, you are welcome to visit Colombia. I will take you to know those habitats ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
