Well done with this beautiful Flycatcher, Rob! It was there again a fortnight ago, despite the lights being switched off.

Wonderful pose, perch, background and what an interesting color to this flycatcher. It looks like it might be trying for the yellow bug on the underside of the branch? Excellent shot Rob, well done.
