One of two cock stonechats working hard to attract the attention of a hen bird on the margin of the beach at Leasowe Bay. Their display consisted of posing on rocks and vegetation with fluttering high flights from one perch to the next.

This enormous cock pheasant waddled around the garden at Wingletang for a couple of hours, but this was the only decent shot I managed to get of it in the sunshine.
