This little wagtail seemed to think a bath would be nice and fun. After being splashing around for a while mom and dad came to supervise but they did not start splashing. Just checking that everything was OK.

First time I was so close to the Green Sandpiper. I spotted it behind some grass and I was afraid to move to scare it away. In the last shot it got some company. A juvenile White wagtail.  :)

In the end of July the Lapwings are gathering. When they take to the wings they actually glitters in the sky.

As soon as it arrives to my area in spring it is always close, always visible until it leaves in late fall.
A bird I love to have around me. Watching its proud walk and wiggling tail. Always busy.

 In most of Europe it is the White Wagtail (Motacilla alba) that is most common. But this is in Scotland, GB, so this bird is the sub-species Pied Wagtail (M. a. yarrellii)
