Here are some more lifers that I got from yesterday's trip to Dr. Alexander Skutch's house. The house itself is now a museum and was declared as a protected area and bird sanctuary by the Costa Rican government. I'm glad I took a chance to travel here inspite of the heavy rains nowadays in the whole Central America.
Male Orange-collared Manakin:
400mm, 1/200s, ISO 800,

Here's the female:
1/160s

1/400s, ISO 800
This is the closest I could get...
