Undoubtedly, I am very happy to have photographed this bird and it happened quite unexpectedly. At a distance of about 100 meters from my hotel there was a plowed field and an artificial pond. A few dozen meters from that place there was the back-office of the staff renovating the hotel.  And there in the bushes near the water I could calmly sit down hidden in the thicket and try to find out what would happen in such a quite urbanized area, if any birds would come to the water place. Two flycatchers appeared, I mean two species of flycatchers. At sunrise I frightened either striated heron or black-crowned night-heron. There were also European greenfinches, goldfinches, zitting cisticola, laughing doves, Eurasian collared doves, and many sparrows. A collared flycatcher (new species for me, belonging to Polish fauna) and spotted flycatcher were appearing every 20-25 minutes and some photos were taken, which initiated the gallery of the collared flycatcher, and significantly changed the gallery of the spotted flycatcher. Who would have thought, such a meeting, such photos in so busy, urbanized place!
