Hi Nubi,
You might know the wagtail as the Pipit!
rock and water pipits and yellow wagtails
apparently get as far as Alaska and North
America.
They are smaller than a starling,
sleek and long tailed which does wag up
and down hence the name.
They are quite comical and beautifully
marked.
I saw a yellow wagtail for the first time
last week, by a river which is their habitat.
Lydia, how is your Canada goose population doing. My last visit to England had the people "squawking" about them over-running the rest of the habitat....just like here!
