Mr Harvie Brown saw it at Aultbea in 1884, more abundantly than the whinchat. |
Emily, who kept two pet geese, copied the whinchat and ring ouzel, and a vignette of an old woman beating off geese. |
The furze-chat, mentioned by C. Brown, is the Saxicola rubetra, commonly also called the whinchat. |
I'd go with the whinchat too, and female rather than male also. |
Insect life is increasing rapidly, encouraging birds such as snipe, curlew, grasshopper warbler, sedge warbler, and whinchat. |
The whinchat may be distinguished at a considerable distance by the white streak over the eye. |
