Departing Wheatear

Hopping around the coast of Weybourne was this loan Wheatear. I'd not seen one for a few months, and this little chap was probably feeding up before heading further south and eventually making the long trip to Africa for the Winter. I'm already looking forward to their return in the Spring. Just need to get through the dark winter months first. 😢

  2. Hello. It's a beautiful bird. Soon there are only a few local birds left for winter feeding.

    1. That's fantastic! They'll be well on there way now. Just 6 months to wait for them coming back. I can't wait :)

  4. Beautiful photographs of the birds. We don't have Wheatears in the U.S. I love seeing birds from all over the world. I found your post through Saturday Critters link-up list. The best to you.
