Yellow Wagtail

The Yellow Wagtail is a small graceful yellow and green bird with a medium-length tail and slender black legs.
Yellow Wagtails can be found from late March to September in lowland grassland and marshland habitat in central and eastern England, eastern Wales and southern Scotland.
The Yellow Wagtail has been in decline since at least the 1980s, most likely due to loss of habitat for breeding and feeding, and it is therefore a Red List species.
