Collared Redstart, Santa Elena, Costa Rica

 

 

A tropical New World warbler endemic to the mountains of Costa Rica and western Panama. They feed on insects, frequently fanning its striking tail as it pursues its prey. They will even follow humans for the insects they flush. This fellow kept following us along the trails of Santa Elena. They would even bath in the numerous puddles along our path:   (Click).
