There were at around 6-8 pairs of Wheatears on Bury Down today and we got a few reasonable pictures, especially when a bold male decided to land on one of the fence posts adjacent to where we were standing!
The main reason for the visit to Bury Down was to see the Dotterel, but the Wheatears were a welcome bonus! Shame it was freezing cold up on the Ridgeway today with the same nagging north easterly wind which just won't go away this year. The car temperature gauge was only reading 8C!
