REDSTART and SPOTTED FLYCATCHER - Tues 6th Sep

Here are some photos of Redstart at a nearby Dorset site. Although there were 1 or 2 about they were actively feeding and never easy to photograph. I'm reasonably happy with these shots which also show the open habitat bordering woodland.






It was also nice this week to watch a few Dorset Spotted Flycatcher doing what Flycatchers do. There were a few about and here are the best of the photos I could get. the birds were very active briefly perching on convenient twigs between forays to catch either flying insects or a food morsel on the ground ...
