Exceptional detail. Is this form Saxicola (t) maurus (Siberian Stonechat)? There may be a teeny tiny bit of colour fringing on the crown (or my screen may be at fault). Excellent portrait.

Hi Rahil,
Beautiful bird, detail, and those feet take it over the top for me!
Best,
Nicki

Looks like a siberian stonechat(non-breeing plumage-male) to me... :)

Hi Rahil

You capture some great detail here in a very sharp image. I would have preferred a bit more space around the bird.

Cheers
