I'm just a humble past birder. I've always been confused by the Pied/White Wagtail question. I've presumed that all black and white wagtails were Pied, ever since I was a nipper, when somebody first pointed one out. Now I took the attached picture and was going to title it as a Pied Wagtail, but thought I'd check my Collins which suggests to me that in fact instead of Pied it's a White so called it that. A friend has questioned this. The diagnostic in my Collins says that a Pied should have a glossy black back. this has a grey back.
I'd welcome any views and some sort of it's a "......". Thanks
