Silky

Another bird from my Costa Rica trip. This guy is a Long-tailed Silky-flycatcher and was 11.9m (@39ft.) away and high in the tree- singing up a storm. The image was captured about mid-afternoon off a mountain trail and he was cast against a fairly harsh background. I toned down the BG and applied some slight increased saturation, contrast,and sharpening. First time I've seen one of these and thought I'd post it.

Thanks for looking.
