A Spotted Flycatcher (Muscicapa striata) with a butterfly. This is a full frame capture. V2 is a full-frame record shot showing an unfortunate Comma Butterfly being fed to the fledglings. The family of 4 fledglings fledged successfully a couple of weeks ago.
Many thanks for your C&Cs on my BWC Water Vole upload - greatly appreciated as always

Absolutely superb, Sylvia. A beautiful well detailed capture.

Quote: A cracking detailed shot sylvia
For me personally though I would prefer to see all the perch and the space beneath it for the tail. Just looks a little unbalanced for my eye, though love the bird and butterfly
Cheers Lee
I totally agree re: balance, Lee but I was so close and it was so fleeting that there wasn't time to swing round to portrait format 
Sylvia
good shot with the butterfly, glad the fledglings all survived
Two wonderful nature shots Sylvia, both a real joy to view. I saw a **** blackbird with a garden tiger moth in its mouth this morning in my back garden, but by the time i'd got my camera set up it had gone
