Thursday 9 September 2010 - Ms Wagtail

The pair of wagtails have built a beautiful little nest outside our kitchen window and now they're starting their family. This afternoon I peered out a crack in the shower window and spotted Mamma in the nest. I carefully opened the window a bit wider and she took off. After about an hour she was back and I was able to get this shot. The white part is the window frame. It's so exciting anticipating the arrival of a little wagtail brood.
