Great-crested Flycatcher

I usually don't give up on a bird until I have a good portrait shot. I don't think they get much better than this in the wild. Now to just catch it in action.

It's an excellent portrait, Danny! Did it just fly through a cog web? Posted 11 years ago

  Probably, it's a really swampy area and from the tree you can see plenty of those around. Makes sense considering the bird and the spider have the same diet. Posted 11 years ago
