@Bee witched I have Wagtails too. They have yellow breasts. Cheeky wee things. A pleasure to watch trotting about. I'm getting to know the different European birds, but we seem to have lots of starlings, magpies and pigeons. A lone robin visits my garden every morning to dine with my hen!
@cornelly Thanks. Our wagtail seems to like criss-crossing the lawn in search of stuff, but does occasionally pick up bits that the other birds have dropped from the feeders.
@Bee witched What beautiful photos! And such a wonderful thing to be able to witness. They look all lovely and cozy snuggled up in that nest, their parents clearly chose them a good spot. It's lovely that you got to see the parents looking after them and watched them all fledge.
Yes .... it was lovely to have them with us for a short while. The nest was quite near to the door of our shed, and the parents were none too happy when we had to go in for something.

We loved seeing them .... they felt like "our" birds for a while.
That last one is having a bad hair day
