Blue-headed Wagtail


Female Blue-headed Wagtail, Melbourn, 10th May 2009 © Steve Cooper
The worn greater coverts and tertials indicate to Steve a 1st summer female Blue-headed Wagtail although the yellow in the supercillium may point to a flava x flavissima hybrid (Channel Wagtail). It is paired with a male flavissima. Steve would welcome further observations.
