Who needs a red carpet when you have the forest floor? Introducing the Pauraque, Panama's very own superstar! This adult bird knows how to strike a pose amidst the lush greenery and vibrant vegetation. With its feathers perfectly blending in with nature, it's like playing 'Where's Waldo?' but with a tropical twist. In this candid snapshot captured by David Tipling, our feathered friend seems to be enjoying its moment in the spotlight. With eyes that gleam like stars in the night sky, this South American beauty is ready for its close-up. The Pauraque proves that even on the ground level of life, there are opportunities to shine bright. As we venture into Panama's enchanting forests, we discover an array of fascinating creatures. But none quite as captivating as this elusive nightjar species. Known for their nocturnal habits and remarkable camouflage skills, Pauraques are true masters of disguise. So next time you find yourself wandering through Central America's wilderness at dusk, keep your eyes peeled for these incredible birds. And if you're lucky enough to spot one perched amongst the foliage on the forest floor – take a moment to appreciate nature's glamorous side.
