Rufous-Gorgeted Flycatcher

This flycatcher was one of my target birds on my recent trip to Singalila National Park. This species is found in Sub – Alpine forests. He braved continuous rains to forage. I was lucky to get him at least on an open perch but not so fortunate to have a shot of him with an insect.
I am grateful to my friend Laba Paul for such a wonderful trip.

(Nikon D500, 500 f4 VR2, 1.4TCIII) Shutter - 1/100, F – 8, ISO – 800;

I APPRECIATE CRITICISMS.
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR VIEWING & INPUTS.

What a wonderful little species. Love the pose of the bird with its head and beak held high. Very nice background.

I like the interesting perch and bg. Most of all I like the detail and perky pose on the bird.
