The Andean Cock-of-the-Rock: What a strange creature! The male is orange (the female is brown). Its presence on the planet is limited to Colombia, Venezuela, the Guyana Highlands, and northern Amazonia. It nests in cliffs or caves. This photo was taken in the Kaw Mountains, at the end of the “Cock-of-the-Rock Trail,” a site with extensive caves. More than 90 minutes of patience were required to capture them on camera. We could hear their presence as their call resembles the mewing of a kitten, but they were not accessible to our eyes until they got used to our presence.
