    Default Stonechats at Horseshoe Lake, Yateley

    Stonechat - Saxicola torquatus

    Spent a pleasant few hours with Chocky, strolling around Horseshoe Lake.

    Chocky took me to where she had first seen the Stonechat, managed to get a few photos, but light conditions were not great.

    I agree, very pretty little birds, we noticed that had a distinct territory and seemed to patrol it regularly.
