Citrine Wagtail
Checked the sewage ponds while taking our dog out for a morning walk and was absolutely delighted to find one of my favourite birds feeding by the less noxious of the two pools. Citrine Wagtail! A stunning male of the citreola race (black collar extending over wing bend and some black feathering in the crown) and a superb patch tick!
