That delightful, restless little bird, the stonechat, is a near relation of the wheatear. |
This companionship extended into early summer when the stonechat family was fed both in and out of the nest by the lonely Dartford. |
En route we were entertained by a stonechat chinking away as it perched on a tall bracken frond. |
Birds species include linnet, nightjar, skylark, stonechat, and yellowhammer. |
Natural vegetation would be grassland and shrub. Amongst the birds the red-backed shrike and the stonechat are important resident species. |
Tritiated corticosterone was used to determine how one male and one female stonechat metabolize and excrete that steroid. |
