Critique Chough in Pembrokeshire

[LukeC]

A Chough from our walk today in Pembrokeshire. We went to see St Govan's Chapel, then down to the Green Bridge of Wales, Elegug Stacks and the Cauldron. Spotted a pair of Choughs, amidst the millions of corvids and gulls. I was glad to get a decent photo; I normally don't realise it's a Chough rather than a blackbird until it's too late.

Never seen a Blackbird with a nose like that!
Nicely done, I though it was worthy of its own thread when I saw it in the 'communal' thread.

Thanks Gramps, I was pleased with it. We had spotted a pair a few minutes before (I say "we" but it was definitely my girlfriend's sharp eyes) and so I was on the lookout with tons of birds flying about. Then came around the corner and found two Choughs foraging and oblivious to us. Easy as it gets!
