That's what this Least Flycatcher seemed to think, anyway... he was so accommodating, posing in the open again and again.
Then again, after all the rain we've had, maybe he was just glad to see the sun again (as was I)...

Nice series, like the lighting in 2, and the background and composition in 1 and 3 - great photos!

Isn't it nice when that happens? You took good advantage of the opportunity, Mike, super shots. The eye could not be any clearer in all the shots.

These are great Mike, it would be so nice to have a bird be this accommodating.
