Red-footed Falcon and Black Redstart - Stoke, Staffordshire


Headed to Stoke for the Red-footed Falcon, the bird was at the former Chatterley Whitfield colliery, we parked up and walked down just a little bit and there was the bird sitting on the wires, stunning bird so striking with those orangy red feet, we stayed for about four hours and had superb views and got some photos my photos do not do this bird justice.
Also a very exciting bonus was a Black Redstart I was over the moon had been waiting a while to see one, had lovely views. Had been a brilliant day 2 lifers, and I love these twitches it is so nice the buzz you get and bumping into people you know, love the atmosphere :)
