Photographed in Pico Codazzi on the way from Colonia Tovar to Puerto Maya, altitude about 2000 m. The male was feeding the other bird - perhaps a juvenile, if not a female. The same behavior was noted with another male and juvenile/female. If you cannot find the birds in this foliage, look for the coralline beak and feet.
