Red-legged Partridge and aberrant Pied Flies

There was a red-legged partridge on the road between Penrhiwnewydd and Penrhyncoch, a couple of mornings ago.

Just as a follow-up to David Price's email, Bill Condry talks about a brown male pied fly in one of his books,but I'm afraid I can't remember which book.

Jerry Moore

When I got Jerry's email I had a look in my (very small) collection of Bill Condry's books and found the reference, and a photograph, in The Natural History of Wales, one of the excellent Collins New Naturalist series.
