Sometimes cameras reveal things the human eye does not see.
Once I was checking a fairly ordinary photo taken in Portugal which revealed an Eagle I’d completely missed at the time.
On Sunday it was a Chiffchaff that took me by surprise.
As ever it was back lit by the sun (hardly ideal) and chiff chaffing away with that incessant call.
I rattled off a dozen pictures, only to find this peculiar shot.
In all honesty I didn’t see it move but it must have hopped upwards, or be standing on an invisible hover board.
