A few last bird pics before my vacation

I'm flying home tonight, to what is expected to be the worst snow this winter. Who knows, I might not get there. Anyway, here's a few more pics from the last few days.


Grey hypocolious


Barn swallow


Rufous tailed wheatear

Stonechat


Isabelline shrike


White-cheeked bulbul


Lastly, a graceful prina, waving goodbye with his tail

The forecast says Wales is in for at least 15cm of snow.

Thanks everyone.

I'm sat at Heathrow and my flight to Manchester has been cancelled. They have re-booked me on a later flight so just purchased some wifi time. It's snowing outside and looks very cold.
