Green-backed Flycatcher ( Ficedula elisae ) 13 - 13.5 cm

This is a migrant and just like the other bird species which seek temporary respite from the cold winter months in their homelands will be returning home soon. I was fortunate to get wind of this bird from a friend. Without hesitation I made a quick trip to the location where this bird was reported seen. The male did not disappoint and after some half hour of waiting it appeared and stayed long enough to be recorded. The female however is more 'shy' preferring to stay out of sight. I would like to try my luck to record the female sometime soon. 

Here are pics of the Male bird.
