Pied Triller n A Drongo

sharkspin · 28th September 2006

Somemore shots taken from Springleaf last weekend. All comments and critique welcomes.
1. Pied Triller.....pardon the poor BG. Bird was perched high and against light.

2. Greater Racket Tailed Drongo....this fella was all over the place teasing and chasing the other birds including the Pied above...

Cheers

I think this is more a spangled drongo. Definitely not a greater racket tail as evidenced by the lack of rackets at its tail. But a good shot. Clear and sharp.
