The Rock Thrush was unlikely to depart given the weather conditions Saturday night and with just a 5% chance of rain, a decent day was in prospect? Wishful thinking!! The welcome party...
And (for my dodgy achilles) a bit of a yomp! About 2 k I reckon?
It was strictly thermals on, hoods up with a stiff icy breeze blowing and no shelter!
Where else would you expect it to be? Rock Thrush complete with rock after what I reckoned was the rocky road to UK400...
Rubble will do as well :-)
Despite the cold, it was quite alert and with everyone keeping their distance, it was soon hopping towards the gallery!
I had to take the classic Rock Thrush shot, we've become accustomed to!
But then tried to find something different... feeding?
Perched upright...
And then having a preen :-)
First card full and I'll spare you all those 'oh so similar' shots for now!
Cracking little bird, perfectly behaved gallery and a milestone to remember but wait, there's another card to sort! Coming soon in part two...
