They have a black bill and legs. In summer the male has blue/grey upperparts, a black face and throat with a white forehead and eyebrow with the breast and flanks being orange. Females have grey/brown upperparts and orange/buff underparts a whitish belly and a pale eye-ring. In winter, both sexes are browner and have less black.
