I first saw a glimpse of this bird under a mangrove tree. I returned the next day only to get a look at it sitting on a branch in pure sunshine but by the time I raised my camera and focus all I saw was a bouncing branch. I also noticed it seemed to earn a living moving through the mangrove understorey as the tide went out. So day three arrived and I went to a couple of places I thought it might be revisiting and there it was. I then managed to work ahead and pick what I thought would be a sunlit break in the mangrove thicket and was even more surprised when it bounded into the sunlight and waited long enough for me to catch these two photos.
