Graceful Prinia (Prinia gracilis)

Not easier to spot in this setting but this was the closest I could get.
A lifer for me. One of these birds I've often thought I'd like to see when I've been leafing aimlessly through field guides. It's got a great name for one thing and is really rather sweet. A bit like a Wren with a long tail though it's a warbler.
Quite common in Turkey I think but I was still very glad to see it.
