Blue Crowned Hanging Parrot



The Blue-Crowned Hanging Parrot comes to my garden to feed everyday. This is what I got today.
The images were taken with two different cameras.

 ISO 2000 ( Note the blue crown)
ISO 400 with different WB adjusted on Adobe Lightroom 3.

Large-tailed Nightjar

 May 20,2011.
I was walking in the morning and someone said in front of me " Look, there is a dead bird ". Right away I suspected it was a nightjar. Indeed it was staying motionless on the ground. I asked everyone not to get too close to the bird as it may be nesting. Someone got too close and the bird flew away. There we saw two eggs.
