Woolly Possum

Woolly Possum: Canopy Tower, Panama, July 2022 — My first night at the Canopy Tower, the guide asked if I would like to go out on a night drive after supper…and of course I said “:sure”. We boarded the Birdmobile, sitting the open back of the pick-up on benches, and headed down the Semaphore Hill road, shining big led spotlights into the trees overhead and on either side, looking for the glow of eyes looking back. Alex (our guide for the evening) spotted this Woolly Possum high in the canopy. The Sony’s multi-frame noise reduction works well with hand held lights and between Alex’s spot and my little, but very bright, tactical light, I managed a decent shot. Sony Rx10iv at 584mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications and multi-frame noise reduction. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos. Equivalent ISO 6400 @ f4 @ 1/125.
