Grey-headed Wagtail Port Meadow 3rd May 2024

A female/1st summer Grey-headed (thunbergi) Wagtail on Port Meadow yesterday evening (found by Thomas Miller).

It is being looked for this morning but no sign so far (07:30 a.m.)

 

Very difficult to see on the far bank and hidden in amongst the vegetation.
