Bonus Pic for today: Black and White Colotuses Monkey

We did not see as many different species of primaries on this trip to Uganda as we did in 2019, but we saw way more individuals. The Black and White Colobuses, in particular, seemed to be everywhere we went. This was our first one, at the Entebbe Botanical Gardens on our second full day in Uganda. I really like the Colobuses…with their 70s fringes and mutton chops and that long tail. Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos. ISO 800 @ f4 @ 1/500th. Plus 1EV exposure compensation.

Black Kite

Black Kite: Entebbe Botanical Gardens: Entebbe, Uganda, August 2022 — by far the most common raptor we saw in Uganda was the Black Kite…and we saw it every day, where ever we traveled in our loop through the parks of the south-west corner of the country…mostly in the air, but occasionally, as here at the Entebbe Botanical Gardens, perched. Sony Rx10iv at 591 and 600mm equivalents. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos. ISO 100 @ f4 @ 1/500th and 1/640th. Plus 1.3EV exposure compensation.
