    Wagtail in flight

    This Grey Wagtail was in view only briefly: I got this shot just as it flew. It was still partially illuminated by sunlight as it passed in front of deep shade. The next day, on the verge of our access road, it was surprising to see two Grey Wagtails, feeding about three feet apart. Before...

    Another shot of the Grey Wagtail on the substation, this time after it was joined by a young Blackbird (slightly out of focus). I like Blackbirds, but Grey Wags are decidedly smarter looking. Thank you for your comments on my pictures, stay safe and well, and good birding! John

    I'm trying to mix in some other species so it won't be non-stop Grey Wagtails, but I do like them. Thank you for your comments on my pictures, stay safe and well, and good birding! John

    I recently posted a Woodpigeon drinking from a pool on the roof of our electrical substation, and mentioned that in past years it has attracted Grey Wagtails. On Sunday this one turned up, staying to feed and preen for over half an hour. The light was poor, but there will be more pics to come:)...

    Multi-course meal

    with free delivery service. When the bird turned its head the other direction I could see that one course was going to be a wasp, but this was in other ways a better shot.

    With. Not at. Didn't mean to offend you.

    Just when you finish on one side, it hops to the other.

    SF - Aaaahhh! Yes!

    That's the spot! That's where it itches! Sorry I haven't caught up browsing. Will catch up between bouts of house cleaning tomorrow. New neighbors coming to dinner, but at least I got the pie done this evening while it was a bit cooler. Now off to bed.

  22. A thorough preen ...

    A thorough preen ...

    ... takes time and attention. One wing at a time, belly, back, even toes. Having inched my way quite close without scaring the bird off, I just sat very still and snapped away, hoping no gulls would sneak up behind me and grab my sandwich out of the half-open backpack where I'd left it (they...

    Heard before seen

    Of course, I had already set down my sandwich and was waiting for them, having heard them already before they arrived. They don't say a lot, and don't even say it all that loudly, but the frequency they use is particularly piercing against the background noise of a waterfall - which is the...

    Arriving for a long preen

    After walking through town and checking the birds at Iladalen Park, I walked further upstream, sat down close to the pool below the falls, checked my camera settings and took out my lunch sandwich. Somebody's actually left a broken but usable chair there leaned up against the stone wall of the...
