During the Vintage Sports Car Club's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2005 I trekked round from the paddock to watch some of the racing on the furthermost part of the circuit at McLean's Corner. During a break in the racing I took this photograph of a little bird that landed on the wall behind me which separates the Donington Park circuit from East Midlands airport, the end of the runway being about ½ mile away.
I couldn't identify it at the time, but it seems to me to be a Northern Wheatear. No doubt someone with better ornithological knowledge than me could verify that or correct me.
