Anne, I was surprized, wheatears normally don't let you get
close to them, but this one did..

This week I went down to the south end of Shetland mainland. A
Isabelline Shrike.. has been there for a few days, as i'm not to
sure of the area it is in , so I phoned Hugh Harrop, he gave me
excelent directions..
It was at the bottom of the field, fence hopping, it eventully
made it up to where I was..
Isabelline Shrike..

Re: Recent birds.. Siberian Rubythroat 20th Oct. 2011.
DIR By: George

My pictures of the [rubythroat] are certainly not as good as I
would like, it kept a fair distance from all the twitchers.
On Thursday we had four birders from Bristal & yesterday we had
a few from Yorkshire. glad to say they all seen the Mega rare
bird..
Yesterday was terrible weather-wise. wet cold & very windy, at
one stage I was nearly blown away, it was so strong..
So.. The Siberian Rubythroat is still at Gulberwick..
My poor pictures of it..

Well, George, I think you did really well to get those pictures
considering the weather. It's always good to see bird pictures.
Well done. Anne.
