Red-headed trogon (female)

We were very fortunate to see this magnificent species up close and personal. Unfortunately, slow shutter speed + unsteady hands are not a good combination, so many of the close-up opportunities were wasted. This was the best i could do...

Still you saw it :) Within forests, even during the day you may need ISO 3200 or even 6400 in my experience. Posted 8 years ago

  Actually, these guys often come out near the road. Notice that she is perched on a cable? You have a point though. It was early morning and misty; if I had amped up the ISO, the shutter wouldn't have been so slow. Duh!! Next time, more coffee :D Posted 8 years ago
