Wheatear (Oenanthe oenanthe)

It wasn't too bad, the weather. In fact, it was jolly decent, I didn't want to put in the last bit, lol. Anyway, I went out down by the river Severn, it was a bit too soggy, but, the tramper made it.

  12. I heard of the name but never knew what bird it was about. But what a beauty is wearing this name. Fantastic the way you capture the birds. The way the bird is looking to you at the last photo, how did you do that?
    Have a wonderful weekend Bob.
