Your paradise flycatcher pic is much better than my attempt with the Japanese version, and I can understand that tail is amazing when we can see them move in the canopy. Lovely pictures and impressive birds.Russell Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09153568497950671742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-395151793190761489.post-9610785993427205652014-04-22T10:08:47.623+08:002014-04-22T10:08:47.623+08:00Thank you all for your compliments.
