Tickell's Leaf Warbler
The boy in me couldnt resist climbing up a very rickety ladder made from branches which thinned to about an inch diameter towards the top to get to an equally fragile platform about 20 feet up the tree. I was rewarded with close views of this Tickells Leaf Warbler before very cautiously retreating back down followed by a swarm of flies. We suffer for our art at times. I wouldve suffered even more if the ladder had given way!

Sounds dangerous enough getting up there without having to worry about your camera as well! But it was worth the effort!
