Wagtail bathing (Motacilla alba)

Went to Ågesta to see if there were still Bluethroats there. I found one and also took some pictures of White Wagtails I found one and also took pictures of White Wagtails wading and bathing in a pool of water.
Had a great five-day trip but it was only in the last few days that I got any pictures.
