This is a highly cropped photo of an interesting bird. Some people think this flycatcher is evolving into a manakin. Its diet is made up predominantly of fruit, its courtship is developing a lek like pattern with groups of males gathering together and it is developing some wing clapping behavior. iso 1600, 1/40, f/8.0, exp comp minus 1.0.
