The isabelline wheatear (Oenanthe isabellina)

At the foot of the hills, in an open field by the river, I sat down to rest from a long hike. Not far from me, on the raspberry bushes sat this bird.

I met her last year at the same place. It is surprising how exactly, after wintering, the birds find the very places where they were in the summer.
The bird calmly sat on a branch and occasionally cleaned her feathers.

Externally, as you can see, the bird is slender, with long legs, the structure is similar to that of nightingales, with brownish-gray plumage.
