This is my first photo of this species for years, so please forgive the distance involved! There were at least 4 individuals present and I was happy with just hearing them booming, until this happened

I managed to have free time at the exact break in the weather yestday. Mostly obtained duplicates, but saw my first blackcap of the season (photo not great though, so holding out for better)

Almost reached #200 now! Your sunbird is an interesting EBC. Even though it is far off the shape looks more like a distant falcon than a sunbird. But I must confess I have never managed a photo of a sunbird in flight, so I might be completely wrong….;)
