Grey Wagtail..... sort of
A trip to a local spot that is normally very good for Grey Wagtails proved to be disappointing, I only saw one in the distance. However the squirrels were quite accommodating, and it was while walking back back to the car that I realized that I had in fact shot "Grey Wagtails"

Just about full frame but flipped horizontally?

Nikon D300
Nikon 200-400 f4
handheld
320th sec
f8
800 iso

nice image, geta pose and setting, something about the colours or contrast doesn't quite look right to me but can't quite lay my finger on why, that said it may just be my screen

I am not normally a fan of black backgrounds, Tony, but it works well here. If I had a penny for every time I went out after one thing and came back with another I would be a very rich man.
