When I set up for this shot, there were two Yellow Bellied Flycatchers sitting on the branch, so the other two were a nice surprise. I'm not positive of the ID, so any corrections will be appreciated.

Thought that we'd take advantage of a break in the rain, so
Tina and I had a treat this afternoon watching a pair of feeding Pied Flycatchers at Tittesworth.
Evidently their young had not fledged as they kept making passes over the Churnet...
I have a huge number of bad photos of Great Crested Flycatchers, one of my favorite birds.
Finally, one had the courtesy to pose in profile in good light.
