Singing Common Tailorbird

I find it difficult to shoot common tailorbirds. They are quite common in my garden, but I hear them more than I see them. They are small and quick. Often they are gone before my camera is ready. They don't have regular favorite spots (like sunbirds) where they hang around. I therefore, cannot preset my camera and wait for them to appear. I consider myself very lucky to capture this bird singing on tape.
