| 説明 | Meet the Madagascar Paradise Flycatcher , in latin the name is Terpsiphone mutata. A remarkable little bird. We saw this male one at La Réserve Spéciale d' Ankarana . But they can be admired at other national parcs too. (they slightly differ in color there)The nice thing here was that we saw this one after a climb of 2 houres in a canyon. At one side of the canyon a river came from under the rocks and on the other side the river disappeared again. The réserve itself is hard to reach and it takes some effort and a good guide to reach this paradise like spot. And there was the little bird. Not impressed , either afraid of humans.Maybe the most notable little bird on our way. I said maybe. In the picture one can see the male. The male is easely recognized by the two lang tail feathers and another striking feature are the ultramarine rings around each eye. Those long tail feathers are often 3 times as long as the rest of the tail. They build their nests in october , november. Interesting to know might be that both sexes help building the nest , they incubate the eggs together AND they both cheat on each other.... |
