On this day - Isabelline Wheatear

Isabelline Wheatear Burnham Overy - November 2016

 
I've only seen Izzy and Pied of the more scare/ rare wheatears and I did not expect to be watching one in the biting cold and stinging rain of mid November. But that's exactly what happened on this day back in 2016. It was so cold I purchased hat and gloves from the shop at Titchwell after watching the bird. Brutal! 

If I recall correctly, there was also a Desert and Northern Wheatear in the same dunes as the Izzy at one point! A trio of Wheatear - not sure how often that has happened?
