Eurasian Wren (Troglodytes troglodytes)

Heavy crop. The bird was moving around constantly through the tangled undergrowth: manual focus couldn't keep up, so I tried single-point AF and managed a couple of shots. The bird was silent and I was only sure of the species when checking the camera panel afterwards.

Thank you for your comments on my pictures, stay safe and well, and good birding!
