The "lookalikes": this series of posts will highlight some of several medium-sized, kiskadee-like flycatchers of the Pantanal. The rusty-margined flycatcher (Myiozetetes cayanensis) is a species in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers.This aptly name bird is the smallest, and we found is buzzing around over the river surface darting off after insects from fallen logs in the current.

Re-post of a composite of all 920 frames captured with D500, 35mm f2.8 set to f5.6, 13 sec exposures, 1 sec interval, between 3:28 AM and 7am on Dec 14, 2021. Merge in StarStaX. Bottom right, the glow of the setting moon.

BTW, if you look a ¾ of the frame above the "35mm" text, you will note a green streak going from top right to lower left for about an inch (on a large screen). This is not a meteor, it is a mystery...The streak formed progressively during the build up of the star trail, suggesting a man-made object in a geo-synchronous object above Cincinnati. You can see this in the next image from which i deleted all the meteor-containing frames. Spooky....
