| Last year's rare birds spotted in Teesmouth and East Cleveland included Isabelline Wheatear, Eastern Crowned Warbler, Black Scoter and Black Winged Pratincole. |
| Its head looked more jaeger-like than anything, and I wondered whether it was a pratincole. |
| I let the pratincole do one more fly-past on those spring-loaded wings, before heading back home to the usual work and domestic duties. |
| The black-winged pratincole was spotted by birdwatchers at the Northumberland Wildlife Trust site behind Druridge Bay. |
| What do bufflehead, collared pratincole, white-throated needle-tail and desert wheatear have in common, apart from the fact that they are all birds? |
| Maybe in a few years time the same will be true of the collared pratincole. |
