Went for a walk and managed to take a photo of a bird I hadn’t been able to photograph yet: A Spotted Flycatcher!
Its German name, Grauschnäpper, translates to “Grey Snatcher” — probably because it likes snatching flies and other insects!

Ah this is an incredible shot! Great job!
Thank you :-)
Ofc! How long have you been doing nature photography? I recently got into astrophotography and realized some of my lenses might have some overlap with nature photography so I've been thinking of diving into it!
I started last year with a really inadequate camera and lens. Only this year did I get a better setup. What kinds of lenses do you have?
