Short break from my Rome pictures (still have many to go through and select for posting).
I took these shots a few days from when we started this saga of staying at home when I went for a walk with Max from Mġarr to Binġemma. We were sitting on the steps of a wayside chapel to allow Max to have a snack and a drink when this Wagtail came searching for food some fifteen metres away from where we were. It gave me time to take some shots of it before it flew away.
These last few years I have either been seeing them often because I am always looking for subjects to capture or their numbers have increased in Malta. These are very timid birds and would fly off at the first sign of movement.
I love watching wagtails! Something about that long bobbing tail and the delicacy and speedy movement of the little bird. This made me smile, thank you.
Good shots- it's always a good feeling to capture a bird that is not seen as often as others. Sounds like he entertained you while you were photographing him.
You got a warning before . Even by taken the pic. it was difficult to keep balance .
