Spring! Happiness! Yay!


Today is a Day of Days.

As well as the Equinox [Spring up here], it is also International Happiness Day annnnnnnnnd......


First Wheatear of the Year!!!!

Patch Wheatear Day!!!

:D

Took them long enough, but yes it was a 'them'!

Lower down

In between

This one's a bit pasty

Fresh in!

There were three in the quarry [hiding from the unforecast fresh SW wind - supposed to be 'light variable' and sunnier!!] when I got there, and I saw three more fly in. So at least six present, though never all in view, because that would be far too convenient.
All birds very mobile, with the local Rockits trying to hold territory at them, and another little visitor in the mix, too;

Another Wheatear!
And!

Black Redstart!

Heh heh heh

No wing flashes

Also a few other migrants about

Another Wheatear!
[And a phyllosc. - in flight!]


"You still here..?"


Nearby..

'Only' a Chiffchaff

Trying for 'Harpy Eagle',
not doing toooo bad
;)

It's a lot more than a good day.


Be Seeing You...
