I would like to know, if my determination Pied Wheatear is right. Bird was very wet due to rainy weather.
Thanks a lot for any input.
Best regards, Achim

No, it is a very wet Northern Wheatear (Oenanthe oenanthe).

Thank you JanHein!
I was unsure, since the black goes up a little at the outer tail feathers and the belly is quite dark. What makes it a sure Northern to you.
Best regards, Achim
The grey back is typical for Northern. The black colour is its down, which is showing because it is so wet.

Thanks a lot for the explanation. Makes sense.
