Tourist? (Motacilla alba)

Our waggies here are not usually so dark as this one. Is this a "tourist" from Great Britain? Or just a local waggie back from down south and sporting a suntan?

Well, that's my three for now. Sorry I'm not yet caught up browsing. Might not get caught up tomorrow either as that will be a work day, and when I get home I have to finish a sewing project. Nearly done. Just one corner to redo, then bind the final seams - but that's the trickiest bit. Then I can get back to browsing. I should get caught up by the weekend.
