This is my #BirdOfTheDay on the theme of #poise - a very nimble desert wheatear atop a spindly bush (wheatear is derived from the anglo-saxon #white arse), good for the alt theme too. #Birds #wildlifephotography #birdwatching #birdphotography #canon #photography #nature #naturephotography

Wheatear on a stone! 😀
I love this composition.... I was laying on my belly so I could get the out of focus green and buff background. 😍 Hope you like it too!
Taken last weekend at the Huntspill seawall in Somerset. 🐦😊

Gratuitous video clip of the Wheatear from East Cliffs just now.
Think this is our second earliest ever Wheatear

After dipping once and being tantalised by reports of sightings all week it felt so good to finally connect with the Desert Wheatear at Pendine today. A lovely bird that showed brilliantly both in the dunes and around the Caban. #birdingWales #birds #UKBirding #rareBirdsUk

Superb views of the Pendine male Desert Wheatear, still present early afternoon around the Caban and Speed Museum. A rare foray out of Pembrokeshire! #RareBirdsUK #WelshBirds

Red-tailed Wheatear - Probably the least numerous of our wintering Wheatear, certainly one of the hardest to find.

Well hello there! A Wheatear has politely joined your scrolling. 😍

Dungeness: A bitterly cold morning brought an arrival of at least 30 Wheatears to the peninsula. These are 4 of at least 10 around the DMG.

#Bahrain #Birds Isabelline Wheatear, a wintering species that can be highly territorial in its behaviour towards other Wheatear species that also stay like Desert
