I managed to see one here in the Spring last year and thought that was a one off. Maybe I just need to look more regularly.
Anyway, it's a cracking little bird and one I'm grateful to for popping in while I was there. The pictures are not great, as I was desperately trying to hide behind a hedge and keep out of sight. Add to that the excitement that was induced, I was a little shaky with the camera.
I've only seen them once this year at Frodsham Marsh and never got a picture. Your pictures are really good.
ReplyDeleteGreat sight, here they are also rarely to see.
ReplyDeleteVery nice bird!

ReplyDeleteYou are dead right Adam. What a shame that a once common enough bird like Yellow Wagtail should cause excitement to us. What times we live in.
ReplyDeleteDelightful little bird. I like the breeze ruffling it's feathers and how long it's leg appear to be.
