Willie Wagtail

before reaching the spot where the Willie Wagtail appeared, I couldn't pass on these beautiful reflections in the lake 




Willie Wagtail was down by that bare tree at the point

looking across to there; some (birds) have it lucky don't they?

Hi Carole beautiful shots of the scenery adn I loved the willie Wagtail. When in Australia, we had one nesting close by adn theyhad 2 chicks that fledged. It was in a very open p;lace in beating sun and we wonder if it would survive, but it did. Lovely to watch the process. Margaret

What Willie lacks in showy colours, he makes up for in personality! Lovely photos, Carole, and I appreciate how you show the landscape in which you spot your birds.

I like the reflection in the water really wonderful to see. Your bird is also very nice. Here in the Netherlands, he does not fly so I see him happy in the picture with you :-)
