Pied Wagtail - Motacilla alba

Photographed at the Stone Works, Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, UK. One of my favourites.

Please look at my website bobswildlife.co.uk. There is a photo of an Chiffchaff,  and  the Pied Wagtail by Callum in the 'Guest Photos

Please can you sign this petition to stop the proposed M4 over the Gwent Levels. I feel strongly about this because it is a place I visit a lot. The damage to the Gwent Levels along with Magor Marsh and the Newport Wetlands will be irreparable!
