Black Redstart

Had a leisurely drive down to Spurn this morning. The usual mixture of scanning and ball throwing! After I'd took the wind out of his sails (not easy) I drove past the Bluebell.

What's that on the roof of Bluebell cottage? I managed a quick pic out of the (parked) car window.

P.156, S.116

A quick turn, I parked around the corner but I couldn't relocate it. I hung around for 15 minutes...and it paid off.

It re-appeared on the roof...

...and then popped down onto the cottage wall. Nice...

VERY lucky to connect with this smart bird in such a short space of time. Then again...I was out there...looking!
