Wheatear  (Oenanthe oenanthe)

 

Welcome to the page of images of the Wheater. Ornithology is an activity which is enjoyed by many people across the world.It is a hobby in
the same way that knitting is or playing poker is. People really like the thrill they get when they see an unusual bird and it's even better if they
manage to take a picture. Below are examples of pictures but also a chance for you to study the bird so you know what you are looking for.
 
Wheatears are passerine birds.You may not know but these type of bird includes more than half of the entire bird species.
So you may be in for more of a chance of seeing one than you may think. In general the birds are either black and white or buff and white,
with long tails. They are what is known as sexually dimorphic which means you can differentiate between the males and females
