Golden-backed Mountain Tanager Cnemathraupis aureodorsalis

One of Peru’s most spectacular birds, rarely seen due to its remote and difficult-to-access habitat. It is only found in wet high-elevation forest near treeline in the eastern Andes of northern and central Peru. Unique plumage is black and yellow with a blue crown and red markings on breast and back. Usually seen in small groups that often join mixed-species flocks in the forest canopy.
