Not really sharp, but my best one this morning of an African Paradise Flycatcher here at home. Focused and going for the kill...

Not at night, I was shooting on manual, luckily. I had my settings right for the sunlit area and this one flew in front of my neighbours garage which was in total shadow, but the bird was still in the sunlight. \O
