A bit of a tough one this....
However, I was wondering if anyone here has any info on identification of female Blue-headed Wagtail.
Saw one bird at Holland Haven, Essex, today (while dipping on Citrine) which was quite dark, almost brown on top, with a very clearly defined whitish supercilium and a white throat and upper breast, which I thought might be a candidate for female Blue-headed or possibly Channel Wagtail.
However, most of the literature conveniently ignores the existence of female flava wagtails!
Maybe if someone has pics of female Channel and/or Blue-headed Wag they could post them so I can see what the deal is!
Thanks!
