Hello Everyone,
When i was down in Cornwall last year, i went to Godrevy for the day and i was watching this little chap for ages, i couldn't get close enough for a good photo as he was slightly down the cliff.
I cant find exactly what he could be in the Bird book, so was hoping one of you could let me know. 
Cheers,
Stephen |

Jeff | thanks Jeff, my thought on wildlife photography is respect for wildlife, enjoy it and the photo is the added bonus if you get it
So this little chap is looking like he's a Rock Pipit |
