| | | A Wheatear for me yesterday!!!
I was so pleased to see a male Wheatear while out on a woodland walk yesterday! It was in a grazing meadow and feeding not far away from a Mistle Thrush! It was a distance away but I had great views of it through the scope! I have added a few record shots of the Wheatear! It is exciting to see the Spring migrants returning!    |

That's good to hear you have also had a sighting, Robin! Smart bird aren't they!
Sorry about pic 3! At least what it stood on raised the bird up for a better shot at it! |
