Rock Pipit!

Rock Pipit! (Anthus petrosus)

This bird was the spot of the day! My first Rock Pipits. I glimpsed one as we arrived, then managed to photograph a distant one later, and came to this third bird at the end of the visit. It just stayed motionless for a few minutes while I took a few shots. Not from as near as I would have liked but clear enough to identify this new life tick.
