Hi, Details on the Northern Wheatear: The bird is being found along the beach at Headlands Dunes SNP between the lighthouse jetty and about half SW along the dunes. It is sticking to he beach and avoiding the higher dunes and vegitation. It likes to forage on the sand and then get up onto the driftwood to look around. The bird has a comfort zone of about 30 yards. At this distance it mostly watches the watchers. At 50 yards it will forage and is less alert. I would guess the bird will stick today and so it is worth the chase if you can get there before dusk.
