Grey Wagtail

09 Jan 2025 17 21 99
A chance encounter on a local winter walk. Quite grainy, I am afraid as it was dark on the river resulting in this taken at 6400 ISO and then having to be severely cropped but I liked the bird. “The Grey Wagtail is more colourful than its name suggests, with slate grey upper parts and distinctive lemon yellow under-tail. Its tail is noticeably longer than those of Pied and Yellow Wagtails. They have gradually increased their range in the past 150 years and in the UK have expanded into the English lowlands from the northern and western uplands.” www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildlife/grey-wagtail
