Restless Flycatcher

[Ralph]

Just outside of Mildura is a place called Lock 9. This is where they keep the Murray River at pool levels between them all along the river system.
I got told that there was a Restless Flycatcher there and I have only 2 shots of one so I thought I better get out there to try to get a few more.
No sooner that I was out of the car there it was and these are a few of the shots I got.
Yes the shutter speed was down a little too much for the inflight shots but I am willing to give them a pass.

One = on the look out for food

Two = Hovering above the grass

Three = With a look to the right.

Four = And it was still for a second or two.

Five = The Pose, which is one I like myself.

Six = And close to moving off here.

Seven = Now it was beginning to go from this shot on and it then was completely gone.
