Is this a Grey Wagtail?

[Alison Palmer]

Hi all,

Can anyone help me to identify the bird that I have just been watching on the waterfall of our pond? It looked like a wagtail with a grey back, light breast and a yellow undertail.

When I looked at the RSPB identifyer it showed the grey wagtail with grey back and yellow front but the one I saw was not so bright and definitely not all yellow. Could this be a juvenile or a female?

We have never seen this bird in our garden before and I would appreciate any help you can give. Thank you.
