Long-tailed Tyrant

Not a new bird for me but definitely in the best positions for photos! It was like he was posing for 3 or 4 of us photographers at breakfast this morning! 😊 You can read about them on eBird  – found from Guatemala south as far as Paraguay and from north to south in Costa Rica, though mostly on the Atlantic or Caribbean Slope in both Costa Rica & Panama. Here’s 4 shots I made this morning that I’m pleased with because I could get close enough. Usually I have to try and photograph from a great distance. Another beautiful and different bird found here. My GALLERY of them is linked at the bottom of this post.

My GALLERY Long-tailed Tyrant has my shots from three previous trips, two others here at Maquenque Ecolodge and one at a Bribri Village in the South Caribbean near Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Limón. These make my third time to photograph here at Maquenque but the first ever this close which shows more details.

¡Pura Vida!
