Wheatear - a photo on Flickriver

Wheatear

            At this time of year there are always a few Wheatears on the local moors as they  pass through on their way north to breed. This fine-looking male Wheatear was quite content for me to photograph it from close quarters yesterday evening, as it searched for small insects in patches of grass on the moorland edge (and as I lay flat on the wet grass and the sheep poo!) It was late in the evening and the Wheatear was mostly in shade, but its head caught the last light as it turned briefly towards the sun.
