    Lesser Racket-Tailed Drongo (Juvenile)

    These juveniles can be easily mistaken without their long tails for a Bronzed Drongo that has a forked tail. Here's my attempt at showing the lovely bluish black shiny sheen of this bird. Exposure details - 1/80 f/8 ISO800 0EV Flash -3

    Catch

    Competition is rife! An adult Butcher-bird looks on in wonder as it's juvenile and a spangled Drongo compete for a single piece of minced beef.A

    Black Drongo

    There was a feeding frenzy going on at the wetlands early in the morning. Pacific swallows everywhere, Yellow-Vented Bulbuls in no short supply, and a pair of Black Drongos all flying around like crazy picking these flies out of the air. Occassionaly stopping for a rest, thank goodness...

    Greater Racket-Tailed Drongo

    A little on the dark side, but the colours and tones of the image seemed to fit. He was perched way off, so it's quite a crop from the original.

    The Greater Racket-tailed Drongos are almost always in our garden. More than half of the time that we are in the garden atleast one of them is always there. This is a typical view looking from my computer room.

  13. Drongo

    Drongo

    A pair of Drongos, presumably male & female. Not quite sure if it is the Racket Tailed or the Spangled Drongo. Shot taken from another tree, had to position myself half way up a forty footer tree. Subject distance about 50 ft. Had to struggle with camera shake or rather 'tree shake' as well...
