Pied Flycatcher
These are one of the main attractions here in the forest but have been declining in recent years- down from thirty pairs to one pair last year.
Imagine my delight when this little fella fresh in from Africa, plonked down in front of the hide this afternoon. He was very accomodating and came back twice. Any one who has done these knows how hard it is to get the blacks and whites right. I am goig to frame the exif info for this one as it was spot on!. Thats in weak sunshine too !! This shot is straight from the camera except for cropping and neat image.
Thanks for looking.
