It was found on the 19th November, a typical time of year for Desert Wheatear to arrive in Britain. They are often the last good rare migrant of the autumn to turn up. One of my favourite Wheatears. Also plenty of Fulmars were taking up residence on the cliffs. A couple of year ticks moves the list on to 130.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/div>\n<div>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\">IMAGES &#8211; &nbsp;Nos 1-6 &#8211; male Desert Wheatear \/ Nos:
