Robin, Dunnock and Oh! Spotted Flycatcher!

Spotted Flycatcher

My intentions this morning were simple, obtain images of common birds! With the initial threat of thundery rain abating quickly, I was off in search of my objectives. I was not to be disappointed and Robin and Dunnock were soon in my lens!

Then a small bird with a familiar flight routine took my attention. Fliiting in and out of the bushes, it was my first Spotted Flycatcher of the year and was soon joined by a second bird, both catching some of the many insects. Of course, I had to spend an hour enjoying these rapidly declining summer visitors.
