My 23rd LIFER of 2026! The Sooty Woodpecker!

While exploring the El Kabayo area, we were lucky enough to come across this amazing species. What made the encounter even more special was getting to see not just the male, but the female as well! A surprise and another addition to my lifer list this year.
