A Verditer Flycatcher up close

A very colorful flycatcher named after its distinctive color - copper-Sulphate blue. Both the sexes are of similar color, but the female has a quite washed out /faded color while the male is colorful like above. I think this is the female since the colors are bit faded.

 

This was also around the area where the stream was flowing. The bird had its fill of water while the other birds were tussling a bit. It landed 45 deg around 10 feet from me. Couldn't help take this nice shot nearly full frame. Being still and silent for a while photographing helps I suppose.

 

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.
