Nice sighting. Unfortunately the background attracts attention. In the earlier days we used to say "f8 and you are there". The reason was photographs were valued if the depth of field was adequate to show the relation between the subject and habitat. So I would have also loved to see the vegetation in the background.

What are the exif details?
