The Collared Redstart (Myioborus
torquatus) is a warbler
with a fairly small distribution, occurring from Costa Rica to
western Panama. It is a bird of montane forest and second growth.
Like it's relative, the Slate-throated Redstart, this species
often fans its tail while foraging, displaying the conspicuous
white outer tail feathers. This individual was photographed in
October, 1995 at Chacons, 15 km SSE of Tres de Junio, Provincia
de San Jose, Costa Rica with a Canon T-90 and FD 400mm F4.5 lens
from a BushHawk shoulder mount with a Fresnel flash. Fuji Sensia
100 film was used. |
