I think we need some "ground rules" here (except for Sue O who is on the water and not on the ground!!:biggrin:) - anyone posting these totally .... photos of "things" which might possibly be birds should state "Where and when" the photo was taken.
Let play commence! :ohdear:

Well done to two folk who have already correctly identified the genus Oenanthe.
Sorry to cause you so much stress Colin:puzzled:! The location of the photo is Andalucia (I deliberately chose a photo that would suit some of you Southern European residents...).

Nice one Morg - although you have made it too easy now! And.....as always when one knows what it is it becomes obvious!
Already on breeding grounds at some sites here in Portugal.
Cheers
Simon
