Oooh!!! What a lovely bird to find and a super picture to get of this heavily camouflaged guy!!!

Excellent stuff JJ - very well done my friend.

Beautiful plumage detail on this, JJ. And the wingbar looks right! But I always have to look at books for that, it's impossible to remember. It must be tricky in France where this species overlaps with familiaris, and if the bird is silent. Apart from all that, I like this bird's pose, as if it's saying "it looks a long way down!"

Excellent close-up of this cutie. Love the color shades of brown with great detail. Top-marks JJ!
