FEMALE PURPLE-THROATED MOUNTAIN-GEM, CASA TANGARA DOWII RESERVE, CARTAGO, COSTA RICA, 10/2/2022
Just after the last photo, I was running to get a photo of a bird. I fell and wasn't hurt, but my camera fell on me. The shock to the camera broke it in some way. So from this photo on, all the photos were taken either by digiscoping with my cell phone or directly with my cell phone. I would like to thank our birding guide, Ernesto Carman, for his help in taking the digiscoping photos.
