Another flycatcher
The comment was made several times on my previous posting of this species that the bird should be looking more towards me. Fortunately the birds were obliging, and amongst the shots of the adults was this one, which is another of my favourites.

I was slightly further away for this shot, so here there is sufficient crop to turn a landscape shot into portrait. Hope you like it, and I'll stop posting at this second one before you all get fed up with them. :wink:

Nikon D200, 600mm Nikkor, 1/350th @ f5.6, 250 iso

Lovely shot David. I'd be inclined to crop a smidgen (is that a word??) off the left had side. Apart from that, great background and great pose. :toast: :toast:
