    Default Yellow Wagtail

    The best I could do - with my improvised photographic set up - with this smart male Yellow Wagtail. Not an easy bird to find these days and yet another bird only to be seen at traditional sites of which there are pitiful few in our area.

    I could go to just two locations were I 'will' find them at one and 'may' see them at the other......it's not good Beryl.

    No. It isn't. Only too late has the world begun to realise and think green and wildlife.
    My secret Garden on my web site I call my green page. I try to be serious on that page ( believe it or not)

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    More like just knowing where they are Babs. Thank you for the comments.

    I wondered where 'up Preston way' your workmate saw theirs?
