A male from a couple of whinchats (Saxicola rubetra) that I met a couple of times during May some years ago.
The male has the bold white eyebrow, dark cheeks, and peachy-orange breast. The female is the duller one, but with a ghosting of the male’s pattern
Now they are wintering in tropical sub-Saharan Africa, and will be back during early May.
(Buskskvett-hann in Norwegian)
