Singin' the Blues...

Right, thats the whinging finished. Now to a proper bird that deserves not to be overshadowed by birding political bullshit...


Voila -


I see I was lucky to visit the Whitley Bay Red flanked Bluetail yesterday. Its gone today!

A lovely little bird, with loads of character too. I feel I should have given it more time. I might try digi scoping again, I could have done well with this one...

Despite yesterdays faux pas, this has been a good autumn so far. Lets hope we get another easterly movement before it ends eh....A Pallas's shower at Halloween would be nice.

Nice images Stewart, one of the most enjoyable birds i have seen for ages.

Very showy and my photographs have revealed loads about this bird. Last one i saw was at St Abbs, and a very different bird in display to this one.

I saw the StAbbs one too Brian, that was much less showy.

Warren, get one on your patch. Imagine that!
