a swallows nest inside one of the huts. look at all those gaping mouths.

an adorable baby spotted flycatcher


awaits recognition but an icredible bug. about the size and a common darter.



guess the bird, well i,ll tell you-it's a redpoll my first ever (my new bird)



a nice family portrait of spotted flycatchers
