This morning I was doing my WeBS count, (don't get weekends off) when I saw a flash of a Wheatear from a distant on the coastguard cottages, it looked abit unusual. So went to have a closer look, which I thought was a Black-eared Wheatear, so took some photos, and when I could, phoned Mike Langman, who came down and said it was a DESERT WHEATEAR. We (Mike, Bill McDonald and myself) had some great views of it as it flew around the rook of the cottages.
