Pretty lady

Pied Flycatcher
I think the females are sometimes more attractive than the males.
( I should hope so too ! )
Taken from another woodland hide I don't use very often. Made out of Dexion by the way.
Late evening sun from the left. Meant to tone down the bright bits but forgot
Not seen a male here yet in the forest this year.
Usual setup

Very nice image John, pin sharp detail in the plumage and great composition. Not a bird I have ever seen.

A pretty lady indeed John, I too have never seen Pied Flycatcher so very envious.

Andy...

Very nice, uncluttered shot showing your subject wonderfully.

Hi John

I really like the lighting in this image and nicely composed.

David

By those pools again John? A very nice image!

Thanks all.
You can see the bird is distressed - she,s just heard who,s PM !!

Some lovely detail in here, John.

David

Nice sharp image John. She should be grinning from ear to ear to hear that the last one has resigned

Comp is excellent , a nicely worked image . Rare capture too .

Lovely John,

Great detail on the bird. Agree with you that the bright areas in the foreground need calming down a touch.

Cheers

Hi Austin
Can't decide. Was going to do it but then I thought it conveyed just a little bit of the low evening sun atmosphere. Can always do it later.
Cheers

So they're back again, nice capture and like the spot light.
