Readers’ wildlife photos

February 8, 2024 • 8:15 am

Hey, folks, I’m running low on photos, and submissions have been few recently. Please send in your good wildlife photos to keep this feature going.  Thanks!

Reader Mark Joseph sends in some Panama bird photos (and one primate photo) taken by his friend “Ed”, and I reproduce them here with permission.  The narrative and IDs are indented, and you can enlarge the photos by clicking on them.

From Mark:

I’m not much of a photographer, but I have a number of friends who are. One, name of Ed, just came back from a trip to Panama. I have his permission to share these photos with everyone. Six birds and a mammal!
Black-breasted Puffbird, Notharchus pectoralis:

Cinnamon Woodpecker, Celeus loricatus:

Crimson-crested Woodpecker, Campephilus melanoleucos:

Howler monkey and baby, Genus Alouatta; hopefully readers can provide the species:

Rufous Motmot, Baryphthengus martii:

Hepatic Tanager, Piranga flava:

Bay-headed tanager, Tangara gyrola:

  1. It’s a real treat to wake up and see this post. I especially love the Cinnamon Woodpecker and the Howler monkeys.
    Thank you!
