Birds > Passerine > Isabelline wheatear Oenanthe isabellina

info

The first attempt to photograph isabelline wheatear was a failure. A short meeting and one photo out of focus. It was the second attempt in the vast stony meadows, overgrown with grass and bushes, which was a success. Wheatear was quite interested in our presence and let us take pictures. And this time the scenery, the color of the light were fine. These few images captures the charm of the bird and the environment she lives in. Isabelline wheatear is slightly bigger than our wheatears and it is slightly less colored. In Poland it has been seen very rarely.
