You have caught the Spotted Flycatcher, you are lucky. Superb images.
Lovely pictures of a sweet little bird!
Quite a lovely bird. I like the bit of attitude it express in some of these shots.
cute bird
What a joy to see your lovely photos and post gracing my news feed! It was a rainy day here in Montreal today but your photos always bring sunshine to my heart, no matter how sad the day is or dull the weather is! :)
Very nice captures!
Beautiful spotted flycather. It is very cute.
Spotted Flycatchers are cracking little birds to see and to photograph. How lovely to have two right outside your window.
super,wat staat hij er mooi op.
Pretty images of your Flycatcher! Enjoy your day!
Pretty bird! Great shots!
it looks a little like one of the flycatchers that visits Sweden in summer. It is a lovely one. :)
i do the exact same thing. as the birds have gotten use to me, i find i can open the window and they are no longer shy. either way, the pictures come out great but maybe just a hair crisper when the window is open.
this guy seems to be a "frequent flyer" and you are really getting some awesome captures!!!!
many thanks for your kind comment on my blog today. my post was a long read and i appreciate your words more than you will ever know. some people are just happy, no matter the circumstances. i hope today is a good day for you!!!!
Excellent portraits of the flycatcher. The feather detail is so sharp, and I love the various poses.

Very beautiful snapshots.. Love this bird. Congrats…
Esta precioso. Un beso.
Such a beautiful series of photos, beautiful~
Great shots of this pretty bird!
What a nice looking bird - for a couple of summer when I was a kid, they nested in the ivy near my bedroom window. Wish I had had a camera in those days.
