The first ones are of the Lapland Buntings.








The next are of some Snow Buntings.








Some Turnstone joined in and here's a shot of one of them.


Considering the bad light conditions I am well pleased with my very first Lapland Bunting photos.

Lovely set of pics John - I saw a Lapland Bunting at Pennington Flash way back in the late '70/early 80's but none of the then local birders would believe me (unknown female in those days with binos - not done - not a full shilling - not to be believed ) Their loss - it was - like yours - a little cracker
