Banded Prinia: Neck (Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park), Uganda, August 2022 — From that same section of foothill forest between Ishasha and Bwindi, (which I now know is called Neck)…a much harder bird to see and photograph: the Banded Prinia. This Prinia is a mountain skulker in the underbrush. Sony Rx10iv at 580mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos. ISO 640 @ f4 @ 1/500th.

Mottled Owl: Hotel Bougainvillea, San Jose, Costa Rica, December 2022 — I posed a photo of this owl taken my first afternoon in Costa Rica. This is the next morning in better light. 🙂 I have seen several owls, over the years in this same stand of bamboo on the hotel grounds. Sony Rx10 iv at 561mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications and multi-frame noise reduction. Processed in Pixelmator Pro on the Macbook Air. Equivalent ISO 6400 @ f4 @ 1/500th.
