    Tiny birds from southern coast

    Two tiny birds from the sub-tropical forest area (Tsitsikamma) about 200km from where we live. Very quick and settle for no time at all so pretty hard to capture.

    great job! I love the action in the first.

    Do you know the ID's, I am not familiar with african birds for the most part.

    Sure Loupey - The first is an Ashy Fly Catcher and the second a female Cape Batis - the female in this instance is the more beautiful!!!!!
