Saw on the local news tonight the big flock of bird watchers trying to get a sighting of the Rufous Bush Chat up on the North Norfolk coast , as much as I like my birds if I had seen it I wouldn't have had a clue what it was , top marks for the person who first spotted and reported it , if any of you clever people could put a photo link on we could then see if any member would have known what it was if they were the first one to see it :hmm:.

P S   ..... The police were involved in case any of the watchers were breaking the social distance rules , strange times indeed .

Excellent photo and THANKS for sharing , considering one haven't been seen for many years, like I said the guy who first spotted it was certainly clued up on his birds , to me it could have been one of several different species that look very similar to the above and I believe that would be the same for most of us                  MM
