Clinging Common Chiffchaff (Phylloscopus collybita), Azraq Wetland Reserve, Jordan

            The Chiffchaff is, for me, a difficult bird to shoot as it seems to not sit in one place for long.  How many times did I get the focus and then while depressing the lens release... this one and her buddy would jump to another branch almost on cue... How many images of empty branches and a blurry tail feather leaving the frame!!  Oh my!!  :-)   But patience is a virtue...

We also have the Willow Warbler here and the Wood Warbler down south and I have spent too much time trying to tell these apart... But, of course, I need to be a better birder... :-)
