Observation details
I first saw probably two of them, did not get a picture. I then saw the species again for about a minute with my brother Patrick and I got photos of a personally seldomly seen species. The photo was taken orginally at 560mm with my Sigma 150-600mm lens, but a M6 II + 1.4x extender was attached, thus bringing the focal length to about 1254mm. I then cropped the 32.3 megapixel image to about 2.8 megapixels, thus making the image below below appear as a c. 4260mm image (!). This is approximately equal to an 85x spotting scope (!).
