Pied Wagtail - Motacilla alba

Photographing Pied Wagtails in the snow
Canon 600mm f4.5 for 1/2000th @ iso400

The cold snap that brought snow and ice in the first few weeks of the New Year, did not yield much in the way of photographs. Only Ian made it into the hills and despite tons of snow being dumped onto the hills did not as I am sure he will not mind me saying so, not achieve as much as he hoped for - despite the perilous conditions and drive across the moors, the wildlife was out of view in the main. He did manage to get Red Grouse and photos can be found by following the link to his websites in the Links page.
