    Yellow Wagtail?

    Hi All,

    Am always a tad hesitant to name a Bird I am not 100% sure of on here as there are so many very knowledgeable people on the Forum am wary of making myself look a pillock.

    This is another new sighting for me, am a bit more used to identifying things that fly with engines!!

                            Thanks everyone for the kind comments, much appreciated.

                            Strange thing is, I was parked in exactly the same location this morning and a Male Yellow Wagtail flew into the tree next to this one at virtually the same time (within a couple of minutes) Pic's to follow.
