Stonechats Saved the Day.


Stonechats ....Saxicola torquata

After dipping on the Med Gull and finding the Brent Geese had left the Bay I was looking for something to photograph. ...

Up pops my favourite birds a pair of Stonechats perched high and low but giving me a fair chance of a photograph......now if only all birds were that obliging.

  2. That's are nice pictures.
    I photographed them back in 2002, and that was the last time I saw them. I think they are avoiding me!

  3. Thank you Kelly. The uncluttered background definitely works with close up shots of birds.

  4. Thanks Bob.
    That is a long while not to see a Stonechat. On the Baywatch site they are just as numerous as House Sparrows.
