Grey headed yellow wagtail

I could shot a very rarely seen grey headed yellow wagtail, a songbird that breeds from Scandinavia to northwestern Siberia and winters in Africa.

During its annual migration from Africa to the Far North, this species can EXCEPTIONALLY AND WITH LOTS OF LUCK be spotted in Belgium as he takes somewhere a small break on his long flight journey.
This year, I was that lucky........ :-))

Dutch name : Noordse gele kwikstaart
German name : Thunbergschafstelze (auch Nordische Schafstelze genannt)
