Wheatear - Oenanthe oenanthe

Wheatear | Frodsham Marsh
Canon 800mm f8 for 1/1000th @ iso400

A sure sign that spring is on the way is the arrival of this visitor from Central Africa, where the Wheatear has spent the winter months.

Frodsham Marsh is a great place to find the Wheatear in reasonable numbers as the birds stop off to feed before continuing their migratory route north.
