While chasing the warbler this morning we had a couple of fantails visit. These are another one that rarely sits still, but they're quite a bit tamer. They eat insects, mostly caught on-the-wing.

I didn't have enough light so the photos were underexposed by 1 stop or so. The lens was wide open and I'm surprised (amazed, actually) at how well the body hit the focus in such low light. And that it chose the right thing to focus on.
