White Wagtail up a tree (Motacilla alba)

Most of my wagtail pics are of them foraging on the ground, which can be a fun process to watch.Yesterday while out doing some urban orienteering I saw three chasing one another around (a pair and a "third wheel"? or two males pursuing one female?) in some birch trees. When two of them took off, this one stood and posed for a while, perhaps rejected and dejected ...? But quite beautiful. Surely s/he too will find a mate.

Somewhere there's a heart
that's beating only for him/her, Doc.
Sergeant Pepper will surely soon lose
another member of his Band. A sadly sweet shot.
