Here's another one from Brazil. These Streamer-tailed Tyrants are doing their courtship display. They bob up and down calling, it's fun to watch.

Wonderful action, excellent detail and a great bg, Nate. I do wish the right bird had turned its head a trifle, but that would really be asking a lot.

Really nice capture, Nate. The background colors perfectly mimic the bird's colors. It looks like the light was not perfect, but it is still a strong image.

Excellent behavioral capture, Nate. You didn't mention how raucous and loud the calls are for such relatively small birds...
