Subtropical Cacique (Cacicus uropygialis)

There are 3 caciques that look very similar (Red-rumped, Scarlet and Subtropical) and when the red is concealed it’s even more hard. Again it’s the local bird list and species range that will settle the classification.

Here it’s eating from the flowers of the Erythrina edulis tree.

It sounds like this:

Altitude 2112 metres.
