I like it 
On a serious note, your picture could help with some research. Have a look at this link, regarding colour ringed alba wagtails, http://www.devonbirds.org/node/372
If you email them your sightings they may be able to track where your waggy has been.
Cheers David. |

Cheers David. | Thanks David. I will do that and have taken note that it is actually a Pied Wagtail.
I never knew that they migrated so far either. Iceland to breed. Amazing
I'll look out for more now I know about it.

Nice pic Desiderata.
Best get knitting some birdy booties!
You've inspired me to go out & about around here with my camera.
I know of atleast 3 lakes local to me are partially frozen, so hopefully will provide some lovely winter pics.
One of them reportedly has about 34 Mandarin Ducks so that'd be nice.

Haa Love it
Seen quite a few pied wagtails recently one pretty little fellow eating food I put out... attractive little birds they are 
Any one know why they 'wag' ? are they trying to mimic something blowing in the wind or something ?
