I agree with Carmen

- no need to see tail colour with pink feet and long bill and pale, slightly tawny underparts.

Cheers

It could not be a warbler because of the lack of supercilium and scales on the belly

It cannot be a Flycatcher also because of the scales (the leg colour and the proportions are wrong.

If we agree it is a chat or robin in a forest habitat with these pluamge features there is no choice in early October - it must be Siberian Blue Robin.

Thanks Carmen & Mike.

I also guess it is Siberian Blue Robin. I may post another Siberian Blue photo in photo Gallery later.

Thanks!!!
