Grey, brown, beige and not even a talented singer: Spotted Flycatcher. You may hear a sort of cracking which is produced by clapping together the two mandibles of the bill. (This is where the German name "Schnäpper" comes from). Or you may see an LBJ flying loops and catching insects just to sit down quietly on a perch afterwards. This is where the English and Afrikaans names come from: flycatcher, vliegvanger.
