Hi Tony,
Excellent photo! (you can almost smell it).

Have a look at these links - I would have thought that the
original call of Isabelline Wheatear to be closer than
Northern Wheatear.
The upright stance seems to fit, however this bird
looks decidedly thinner than its African/European counterparts:

Fantastic find!
Cheers,
Greg
