Photo of the Day – The Grey-cheeked Nunlet (Nonnula frontalis) is found in Colombia and Panama where it inhabits tropical and subtropical moist lowland forests. This is a rare bird but not considered to be globally threatened – its rarity stems mainly from its unobtrusive habits and a lack of knowledge of its vocalisations.
