Hi All,
I had a phone call from a birding friend this morning to say there was a couple of Ring Ouzel on a local estate's sheep field, having never seen one before I headed straight over, and found both of them looking for food with the starlings and blackbirds. The light was pretty dull and they were a fair distance away so this is a big crop, but pleased to have a record of my first ever sighting.

I've never seen one so thanks for posting
So they are on their way then! Still await these in Cumbria!
Nice record shot Rob, maybe a bag hide would have gotten you closer, do WWS do an 'advantage sheep pasture' pattern!
Cheers
Brian
The only thing stopping me getting closer with a hide/camo etc, was a private land sign and a barbed/electric fence
