Hi All
Spending a few days over here and trying to get a bit of birding in. After a great view of a Peregrine speeding into a string headwind, I found a small bird in the surrounding bushes.
Really having problems IDing this one. Looks like a juv. Stonechat but doesn't sit upright at all. Also has a blue-grey flank. Pictures are a little pale, brown should be a little richer towards chestnut and the blue flank can be easily seen by eye.
It was on it's own and trying to keep out of the wind and popped up just for a short time and then disappeared.
Yours
