It was a long but rewarding day! We spent the first half at a fantastic Malayan Banded Pitta hide, enjoying views of fresh plumage on the pitta and lots of other great birds that came by. In the evening, we decided to try for this special nightjar—perfect timing to put my favorite lens, the Canon RF 400mm F2.8, to use. Even after sunset in very dim light, the fast F2.8 telephoto and the Canon R6 Mark III tracked almost every frame of the bird in flight, with beautiful dusk light in the background. Really loving how it handled this challenging shot!


今天是漫长但充实的一天!上半场我们在一个很棒的马来蓝尾八色鸫点度过,看/拍到八色鸫漂亮的新羽毛,还有很多其它好看的鸟。傍晚我们决定尝试拍这只特别的夜鹰,这也正好用上了我最喜欢的镜头 Canon RF 400mm F2.8。即使是在日落后光线很暗的情况下,这支 F2.8 长焦镜头搭配 Canon R6 Mark III 仍然把鸟儿飞翔的画面几乎每一帧都追焦得很好,而且背景还有美丽的暮色光,非常满意这次的表现!

Definitely not a lifer—I’ve photographed this species over 50 times! But this is the first time seeing such vibrant colors and such a confiding individual. The bird hide offered an amazing experience with this lovely bird, and everyone was really happy with the results.
This is a stunning female!

这绝对不是新种,我已经拍过这只鸟超过50次了!但这是第一次看到它颜色这么鲜艳,又这么亲近人。这个鸟点真的很棒,给了我们绝佳的拍摄机会,大家对成果都非常满意。
这是一只非常漂亮的雌鸟。
