this little beauty i meet in a
holiday in juli this summer

info:
The Whitethroat, Sylvia communis, is a common and widespread typical warbler which breeds throughout Europe and across much of temperate western Asia. This small passerine bird is strongly migratory, and winters in tropical Africa, Arabia and India.

Several Sylvia species have distinct male and female plumages. This is one of them. Both sexes are mainly brown above and buff below, with chestnut fringes to the secondary remiges. The adult male has a grey head and a white throat. The female lacks the grey head, and the throat is duller. The Whitethroat's song is fast and scratchy, with a scolding tone.
This is a bird of open country and cultivation, with bushes for nesting. The nest is built in low shrub or brambles, and 3-7 eggs are laid. Like most "warblers", it is insectivorous, but will also take berries and other soft fruit.

Ah Mikael,
beautiful capture in the evening light? I really love these birds.
The background is just enough blurred, to see something of the environment.
I really like this picture.

hello Mikael

your photo is a real little beauty,
great composition with the focus and colors and details,
but what most i like is the way the bird is framed on the image
and the contrast between the dark density backround colors
and the birds light density colors, TFS

Asbed

Hi Mikael,
I like these warm colors & sharp details. No sore thumbs building the hide I hope :)
Great work.
