It was also difficult to capture the entire bird without zooming way out. Same problem with Lyre-tailed Nightjar, The tail is too darn long. <br /><br />p.s. I missed the Trainbearer.Chris Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17998883745688012052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387933310486010400.post-43409963749773921752010-07-12T00:26:09.527-05:002010-07-12T00:26:09.527-05:00Hi,
interesting how you describe the Violet-tailed...Hi,<br />interesting how you describe the Violet-tailed Sylph with its tail, so long it's impossible to catch in in a shot...<br />Seems like you haven't seen the Black-tailed Trainbearer. I would say it's tail is double as long...<br />Cheers MathieuMathieu Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13737933018339080700noreply@blogger.com
