White-eared
Barbet, Tinker Barbet, Pied Barbet, Black-collared Barbet, Crested Barbet - just as I
thought I had seen them all, along comes the Apple-bodied Barbet!
This has to be a new species ;-)
We were sitting on the front porch watching the bird hollow out this large apple.
The Barbet would disappear into the apple with only the tail and toes showing,
popping its head out occasionally to look around....
