Excellent Phillip

Great tones and colour. The perch is a bit hefty and dominant but otherwise a perfect portrait.

cheers

Best spotted flycatcher pic I've seen. It always amazes me how the background colours match the subject but it shouldn't should it as afterall that's why the things that colour in the first place.

I like this a lot Phil, you have caught the bird beautifully. I too think the perch is a little ungainly.
