En av de sötaste fåglar jag sett hittade jag i Costa Ricas regnskog. :)

I thought this was one bird but the shots indicate it might be two. The last shot differes. A young?

Can´t find much about them on the net. Sorry. :(

This is a sparrow and was quite hard to find on the ground. It is well camoflaged. It was the eyes that catched our attention.
