Leaf-love (Phyllastrephus scandens)

Thanks for your kind comments on my posts yesterday.
I had superb 5 weeks in Uganda driving all around this beautiful country. Bird-, Wildlife, Landscapes and last but not least the friendly Ugandan people made the trip a very interesting and pleasant one. I was very impressed about the almost untouched eastern and northern parts of the country.
Photography in the forest, with little light, shy birds that never sit quiet and just show up for some seconds, is difficult. Therfore sorry for some poor quality photos.

WOWSER Volker!!!

Oh my friend... what a time you had. And even though the forest photography was difficult, you still got some lovely pictures of such rare birds too.

I've now added all of them to The Opus - many, many thanks again my friend.
 
A lovely setting, volker, and so well focused through the twigs. Glad your trip was so successful!

So frustrating when the lighting's poor, I empathise Volker. Well done in the circumstances.
