Double-toothed Kite: Danta Corcovado Lodge, Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica \u2014 While we were on the canopy tower at Danta Corcovado Lodge shortly after sun-rise, this Double-toothed Kite came to visit. It sat on a tree well away from the tower, in the strong direct, somewhat harsh, light of the level sun just over the horizon. These shots are heavily cropped and enlarged to get the bird this big in the frame, as well as some extra processing to deal with the harsh light. The Double-toothed Kite has a extended range all through the lowlands of Central America, the Amazon basin, and the Atlantic coast of Brazil, around the horn from the Amazon\u2019s mouth\u2026where it hunts for mostly insects and small herps. Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos. ISO 100 @ f5 @ 1\/1000th. <\/p>\n
