And secondly, probably high on most birdwatchers list of favourite birds, the stonechat - a bird that toughs it out here in the UK over the winter, which makes them even more endearing. Gary and I saw them in good numbers near Conwy mountain last week which is wonderful to see.
Welcome to my rambles about art, mountains and wildlife, the passions in my life. Good to see you here.

Wheatears and Stonechats
Studies of two of my favourite birds which we've recently had good sightings of. Firstly it is always a thrill to see the first wheatears of the year arriving here from their wintering grounds. Amazing little birds to fly the thousands of miles it does every year. I'm looking forward to seeing plenty of them throughout the summer months keeping us company on our walks in the hills.
