Congratulations. The harder the strruggle the greater the reward ... or something like that :).
 
Well, thank you for taking the time to get a photo of this rarely species - even though I am aware this is already your second photo on BF of this species! Very nice.
 
Hejsan!
I think this is the first photo of a non-Australian Maluridae I've seen. Your persistence really paid off.
