At the pond I see that a big part of the previously drying pondbed is under water again thanks to the recent rains. I move the hide further as I don't want to miss the water rails.
The morning is lightless for a long time so the first shots of the rails searching nearby are unsuccessful, they are all blurred. Now and then a young moorhen appears too, but I can't take decent shots of it either.
The young wagtails are roaming the whole area and I manage to catch one of them:
Young White Wagtail
Among the wagtails I catch sight of an unusually coloured one! It's something new: a grey wagtail!
Young Grey Wagtail
It's moving continously, so it's not easy to photograph it, although it returns several times:
Young Grey Wagtail
Young White Wagtail
Stretching:

Later a green sandpiper appears, unfortunately it doesn't come close enough, so I have the young wagtails only for today.
