That's a terrific picture you've taken of this Stonechat Gerald. Such a handsome male.

Many thanks for showing him to us.

I've changed the scientific name you used, as the Stonechat was split a few years ago, with S. torquata being used for the African Stonechat, S. rubicola is for the European Stonechat. I hope you don't mind.
