Summary

[edit]
Description

A beautiful and small flycatcher that I had long wanted to see and shoot. The bird is small, maybe 10-12/13 cms at best and quite agile. It is easily identified by the red color on the breast area. A migrant from Western and Central Europe to South Asia during winters, the bird stays till March before moving back to its breeding range. We sighted this beautiful bird quite by chance while we were looking for the Sulphur Bellied Warbler. It was difficult to shoot a small bird in a clump of dry trees, and this is one of the few good shots I managed to get. It was foraging the lower tree canopy looking for insects, caterpillars, larvae and maybe spiders.

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.
