For me, the white that extends down the outer feathers of the tail eliminates Desert, Peter, and the drab brown, slightly greyish, mantle , head & throat, coupled with the orangey-buff wash on the breast, fits female Pied best.

Today, I'm not agree with you, Mark!
This bird fits, for me, not with a female Pied Wheatear!
Female Pied. Tommy may be relieved to know it's certainly not a grebe or heron. ;-)
Hi Howard and Tommy,
I would go for Desert Wheatear, but can't rule out Northern!
Do you have more pictures?
Regards
Peter
Feel like female Pied Wheatear to me, but from my previous post regarding this species, it's probably a grebe or a heron ;-)
