Field Notes

Description:

A juvenile Northern Wheatear, a migratory passerine bird, spotted along with other of its species, near Pinakates village, Pelion mountain. Greece. The name indicates that the birds return to Greece, when the grapevines bloom...(I think they're early this year!)
Ένας σταχτοπετροκλής, φωτογραφημένος από απόσταση, σε τοποθεσία κοντά στο χωριό Πινακάτες, στο Πήλιο.
