Andean Cock-of-the-rock
Rupicola peruvianus
The Andean Cock-of-the-rock adult male has vivid orange-red plumage over the head, neck, breast, and upper back, contrasting with a predominantly black lower body. Black wings carry broad silvery-gray areas formed by elongated tertial feathers, while the tail is black and the breast is unmarked. A large, rounded crest of densely packed feathers arches over the forehead and partly conceals the bill.
