Copper Sunbird

Copper Sunbird: Chimpanzee Lodge, Kibale National Park, Uganda, August 2022 — This is the last of the sunbird species we saw at Chimpanzee Lodge on our afternoon walk around the grounds. One shot in the sun and two in the shade show off the full range of subtle rich colors on the bird. In coloration it is similar, of course, the the Bronzy Sunbird, but the extra long tail on the Bronzy is unmistakable. Sony Rx10iv at 600 and 540mm equivalents. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos. Sun shot ISO 160 @ f4 @ 1/500th. Shade ISO 640 @ f4 @ 1/500th.
