The Streamer-tailed Tyrant is a distinctive resident of Buriti palm groves and seasonally wet grassland from western Bolivia to central Brazil and to northeastern Argentina. Overall these birds appear pale gray with black wings that are highlighted by a patch of cinnamon at the base of the primaries. Aptly named, the Streamer-tailed Tyrant has a long deeply forked tail. Streamer-tailed Tyrants often perch conspicuously on the tops of low trees and bushes and utter a harsh repeated "wurreep" call. They forage by flying low over marshy areas before pouncing to the ground to catch large arthropods.

During courtship, the members of a pair of Streamer-tailed Tyrants perch 10-50 cm apart facing one another, while each bird alternately lowers their head and raises and fans their long tail. The birds then proceed to lower their tail and raise their heads while raising their wings and calling continuously. Source: Birds of the World.

The mist blowing up the valley kept sending up streamers that were lit yellow by the rising sun.

The annual bluebells thing I'm afraid. They're cliché, but a very pretty one when that morning light's pouring through.

Another busy day in littleworld. Even if there are still a few days to go until the new year. The streamers are already being prepared for the party by ironing them. And as always, you can rely on the hard-working little helpers.

Thank you for visits, comments and favs!

Upward streamer by Christos Doudoulakis

An upward unconnected leader (or upward streamer as it is more commonly termed) is a positively charged channel of ionized air that rises from ground objects (like buildings, towers, trees or even the ground itself) towards a negatively charged downward-moving "stepped leader" from a storm cloud. When an upward leader "connects" with a downward leader, the lightning bolt we see occurs. It is possible to catch (in a photo) one or some of the upward leaders who "didn't make it" to connect with the downward one.

This is the window in the guest bedroom at the cottage in New Orleans- I actually have yards and yards of lace from a sale we attended several years ago, so I tied streamers to a tension rod for a little added privacy!

Happy Window Wednesday!
