This one turned up after I had been sitting for some time waiting for an entirely different bird.

Thanks PJ1. I had not seen this little guy in the wild before, so, as you say, a nice reward. I did manage to get a few shots of my intended subject eventually, also.

Thanks Tony - yes, I got about 4 or 5 shots off of this little guy, so it was worth the wait. For this occasion I had resurrected an old shoulder brace circa mid 1970s, with its old pistol grip replaced with a modern pistol grip handle that took a cable shutter release for my KP.
