hi all ... Gene and I went up to Westport today to look for the
Wheatear ... lots of birders there resulting in lots of eyes looking
for the bird ... we saw the bird in the grasses, on the rocks, and
along the long jetty ... it was a very difficult bird to photograph
because it never stood still !!!!!!!! ... I only managed a couple of
shots of the bird as it flew from the jetty back into the grasses
!!!!!! ... a bit grainy and not particularly sharp, but the images
nicely show the Wheatear's markings ...

AND --- the Wheatear was my 300th photographed "life bird"
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ... wheeeeee !!!!!!!!!
