| | | Wheatear
I didn't know what this was when I took the picture but having checked my book I believe it is a Wheatear. It was one of two that I saw this afternoon.   |

Yes indeed. Great aren't they. We saw a small flock on the marshes today. My shots are more distant. Good to see fair numbers around the country.

Nice photos Cheryl.
Saw one at Crossness last weekend but a very long way off - didn't even try for a photo.
