(Rufous-tailed) Rock Thrush
Monticola saxatilis

(Above) Al Ghuwayriya to Zubara Rd, Qatar, 20 February 2013 (EOS 7D, 300mm f2.8 + 2x Extender)

Wary but colourful. Or should that be: wary because it is colourful? Possibly not, as everything, black and white or multicoloured, gets shot anyway. Hopefully, it will evade the hunters before heading off north.

I shot the bird with my camera, and left it in peace for others to enjoy.
