African Paradise Flycatcher with brown Tail streamers - Tanoumah

Whilst birding Tanoumah I came across and photographed a male African Paradise Flycatcher with brown tail streamers as well as two females. This is the first record I have had like this of a bird with brown tail streamers as all the previous males I have seen have had white tail streamers. I have probably seen more than twenty males previously so the ratio of white to brown streamers must be very high in favour of the white colour.
