The Chestnut-bellied Euphonia is very beautifully coloured, with a royal blue coat, yellow shoulder and rust-coloured underparts. The female (see “more photos”) is greenish on top with an indistinct blue cap and only a small patch of chestnut underneath near the tail. The Chestnut-bellied Euphonia was not at all common at the feeders in Itatiaia and seemed only to appear when all other tourists had left. It lives in southeastern South America, mostly in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. More

A short time later they were joined by a gang of the outrageous Saffron Toucanet, and we even scoped a pair of Red-breasted Toucans in a distant tree at the same time. The hummer feeders weren't bad either with the typical highland species including our first Black Jacobin of the trip. The show was so good we spent most of the afternoon there. More
