Whitearses everywhere!!!


Oooooh yes!!! After two very poor springs for Wheatears around work I hit the jackpot today. Not just one but twelve of the little beauty's in fields below the factory at snappin' time, problem was i found them with just ten minutes of the break left!



Soon as I could this evenin' I was back around work and managed to find two more but the flock of twelve had all already moved on. They must have come down after light overnight rain followed by a heavy shower around dawn. A break in the cloud mid-afternoon must have encouraged them to continue north. Nearby Spurn o Staffs (Berryhill) had 31 Wheatears this mornin and a Whimbrel as well!
That's all folks.
