Birding Northern Peru part one

Northern Peru is rarely visited by tourists. In fact, during our three week trip, once we left the coastal towns we were often the only clients in the hotels. Still also in the North there are interesting archeological sites to visit. In 2014 we drove 2000 km from Lima to Tarapoto in the eastern foothills of the Andes.
This video was edited with the focus on the birdlife.

Nice birding! Your lancebill is actually a Swordbilled Hummingbird.

Many-coloured Rush-Tyrant has to be one of the best birds I've ever seen.

[@guymarchal8660]

12:20 My favorite I love that bird

[@mobetta3456]

We have vermilion flycatchers and black-crowned night herons here, too (Phoenix, AZ). I have hundreds of pix of the former from our dog park.

[@guymarchal8660]

sure, some birds like night herons can be found almost everywhere. The idea behind these video's is to illustrate what we saw (and could catch on video) walking around in these places: sometimes a bit disapointing?

[@hardcorebirding8677]

Nice video! The Shiny Cowbird is a dark morph of Vermilion Flycatcher

[@guymarchal5079]

Thanks, I learned something new. In fact, we saw probably more of these dark morph birds around Lima.

@@guymarchal5079 To add to his notes, hopefully more exciting for you, your green-fronted lancebill is actually a sword-billed hummingbird. I think it's a female, but I'm not that good.

[@uniquity2]

Also in that dry coastal habitat, your green ibis should be a puna ibis and I believe your golden-olive woodpecker, is a the more range-restricted Black-necked woodpecker, but I would seek out expert advice. Hopefully this adds to your lifelist.

Mooie fotos hoor.

[@qf4301]

Very good,Could you tell me which camera were you using?Thanks.

[@guymarchal8660]

This was recorded with a Panasonic HC-X900 HD 3mos camera

[@christophercollins1190]

Thank you for sharing this. Would you mind sharing what equipment you used?

[@guymarchal8660]

Guy Marchal 1 maand geleden What I use is a Sony FDR-AX53 4K consumer camera with a 20X optical zoom, fitted with an old Sony teleconversion lens VCL-HG2037Y factor 2X. I record moving scenes preferentially in FHD at 50P. I only us 4K 25P recording for long distance shots without too much motion. This allows me to crop later on during editing achieving around 1600mm equivalent without loosing FHD resolution. I render in XAVC S which provides much better quality than XAVC. Recording for both formats at 100 megabit sec to minimise artefacts.

[@christophercollins1190]

Thank you, Guy! Great video! Looking forward to following in your footsteps in November!

[@RanggaIndonesia]

[@sparkfirerun]

What is the apparatus on top of your camera?

[@guymarchal8660]

it is a flash extender see "better beamer" on the internet. it concentrates the light of your flash and allows to get strong illumination at fairly large distance.

jammer van de flits oogjes
