Wheatear id Cyprus (1 Viewer)

Hello Paul,

your bird shows the tail pattern of a Black-eared or a Pied Wheatear with the black reaching far up, leaving the white cutting in the black.
And it looks pale, warm and whitish-creamy, and very pale throated, so I think its an Eastern Black-eared Wheatear by range (have only seen Western before)

But better wait and thanks from me too!
