Long-tailed Silky-flycatcher (and Baltimore Oriole)

Long-tailed Silky-flycatcher (and Baltimore Oriole): Miriam’s Quetzals, San Geraldo de Dota, Costa Rica, December 2022 — The Long-tailed Silky-flycatcher is not, in fact, a flycatcher, but it does have a long tail. Here in the US, we also have a silky-flycatcher, the Phanopepla of the South West deserts. And, of course, the Baltimore Oriole keeping company with the Silky-flycatcher is a common summer bird all up our east coast. Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. The birds were not close, and the “close-up” is a heavy crop. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos. ISO 100 @ f4 @ 1/500th.
