Pied Fly action

The hill above Santurtzi (the port of Bilbao) is a cracking place to look for migrants. During our brief stop there on Thursday morning (9.9.04), on the trip with the Company of Whales (check out www.companyofwhales.co.uk), we stumbled on a big fall of Pied Flycatchers, with more than 100 on the hill. However, these photos were from a lesser invasion of the species (still with 30+ birds) a few days earlier (46.9.04). I don't remember ever seeing a Pied Fly bathing in a puddle before...
