February 2012 - Yes... the Wagtail and snow.

Sunday 5th: Well, it was at the back door this morning at 9:30am to get meal worms that I had just recently put out and the Grey Wagtail muscled its way through the House Sparrows to get one! Snow had fallen late yesterday afternoon and is lying about 6cms deep, though it is fairly mild today and a thaw seems to be underway. At the time of writing this (lunchtime), the Wagtail has been here all morning pecking at the ice on the pond and returning frequently to the back door to get a meal worm.
