Just like buses!

I have been expecting to see my first Wheatear on the beach for the past week but not a sign.
This morning outside the bungalow my first ! As I wandered up to the hide another on the path and then on the metalwork by the hide a third! A stonking male.....
Male Wheatear.
The Iceland Gull was on the beach at 7.00am. and later returned to the Lagoon. I couldn't resist taking a few more pictures at 3.45p.m.  as its in my 'patch'...it wont be here for ever!

...in flight.

...showing off the wing and tail markings well.
 
...and for good measure an ever present Tufted Duck

...and a pair of Great Crested Grebes
