Lapland Bunting

It took an effort and a half for someone as unfit as me to hike to the top of North Hill on the Malverns, but spending a couple of hours crawling around photographing this beauty made it so worthwhile.

The view wasn't bad either! And another new bird for me.

LOL well climb the hill a few more times and you will do it effortlessly the next time this bird comes along ;) sounds like a great hike and experience and a brilliant photo to boot. Love the low angle :t:
