While birding in Colombia, I traveled through the regions of Antioquia and Santander—two areas known for their extraordinary bird diversity. On my walks through misty mountain forests and remote trails, I encountered fascinating species such as the highland motmot, the azure-headed tanager, and the colorful masked trogon. Tiny hummingbirds flitted through the scene again and again – barely bigger than a thumb, but full of life and energy. I particularly remember encountering two wild yellow-breasted macaws, which were grooming themselves extensively high up in a tree – completely calm and seemingly unobserved. This gallery brings together my most beautiful bird photos from several locations in Colombia’s species-rich Andes. All shots were taken with my Sony Alpha 7 IV and the Tamron 150-500mm lens.
