B.C. student helps discover new bird species in Colombia

Tapculo in Hand

A tiny black bird deep in the forests of Colombia has been recently named a new species thanks to the efforts of a B.C. ornithologist. In 2015, Julian Heavyside, then an undergraduate student, was on a two-month field assignment in the Parque Nacional Natural Tatamá in the Western Andes region of Colombia when he captured the bird — an alto de pisones tapaculo.
