Not sure if there are more Reed Buntings this year at Cathkin Marsh or not but obliging little souls sit up nicely on top of dead Wild Angleica heads. Fortunate that the wind direction was right to catch this lovely male fly through the grasses lit by brilliant sunshine. Multiple burst of shots of single individual in-flight composited together in Photoshop. Sony A9 + Sony FE 200-600mm Lens @ 600 mm, f6.3, 1/3200s, ISO 1000
