Ecuador birdcall ID???

Not much to see in the rainy weather here today so.....

I'm still compiling my lists/photos/video from last months Ecuador trip.
Heres an audio file of a bird in the cloud forest near Mindo, Ecuador.
We heard it every day from "septimo paraiso" but dont know if we saw it.
It sounded even more like a metallic squeeky gate than this recording.
I havent IDed it yet, so can anyone help (add comment at the end of this post if you can)????
Press play here, it lasts 10 secs...
