Hobby at Walmsley Sanctuary

We were treated this afternoon to a Hobby hawking dragonflies in front of the small hide. The sheer speed of this agile bird is awesome when seen close up and is extremely tricky to follow in through the lens. By chance it landed in the tree above us for a minute or so, trying to balance on the twig.
