Northern Wheatear.

Close but no Budgerigar.

 

[Andy Adcock]

Or maybe an Isabelline Wheatear *taking some kind of "rarity bonus" into account. I hope thats understandable and as always ... surely not necessary for you from which posts I have learned so much

* if this true, please note large billed/headed and short tailed impression, resulting in a front-heavy jizz

A nice walk today which included a flock of c10 Ortolans too.
