Thanks Vee, yes used flash the light was fading I think it was about 9.30pm and
I had the flash on the camera, didnt think it would even reach it was a good
distance, but tried it anyway and this was the result.
Jeepers anyway, were you watching out for this one or he just happened to fly by? :D Kind of an odd one but I like it and good to see the bird in full detail :)

He was sitting on an overhead wire and I just waited till he took off. Was trying to get the swallows
but boy you have to be quick with those, you would need to have a swivel neck :lol:
Great capture Jenny. I especially like how its tail feathers are fanned out showing the detail & the slight movement caught in the wings. The flash worked well in this.
Thanks everyone, I think I will start using the flash more, I never really
considered it for bird photography, but even with small birds it doesnt seem
to bother them.
