Anyone know if Bronx's cocks-of-the-rock are subspecies specific?
These are probably sanguinolentus, at least the one on the left. The right one could actually be the nominate, but I'm not entirely sure.
 
Indeed, the one on the left is a model to encourage lek breeding-related behaviour.
 
Haha, funny that I made that mistake. I was mainly looking at the colouration, that one fits way more for sanguinolentus. The living individual is strange-looking, supposed to be sanguinolentus in Bronx, but more like nominate colourwise.
