Kringel on saturday, many migrants had arrived and bushes were full. Suddenly we noticed 2 Wrynecks enjoying the sun with just a few meters inbetween. One of them flew into the bushes as they usually do, but the other looked surprised, had a good look at me and decided that I was not going to be a threat. In which he was right of course, but what a chance!
After a few minutes I left the bird alone, and a little later it was feeding on the typical Helgoland red-rocks (see previous post). The weekend was full of birds, some more images below (including the long-staying but very difficult to see Rose-coloured Starling). Other records include Lapland Bunting, Yellowhammer, Arctic and Pomarine Skua.
