Field Notes

Description:

Medium-sized, elegant bird with a crest. Two elongated streamers on the tail feathers add to the beauty.

Habitat:

Forest. It kept flying around but always in the shade and semi-hidden. These shots were taken in the fading light when one of them decided to perch in the open.
