Eastern Yellow Wagtail

EASTERN YELLOW  WAGTAIL
Motacilla tschutschensis
Motacillidae Family

common, migrant
L 166 mm (6 1/2")

Bird #33 - October 2008

This is called Yellow Wagtail Motacilla flava in the Kennedy guide. The Eastern Yellow Wagtail is "common in open country, mowed grass, and found alone or in large groups. The first wagtails I saw were on the grass,  in an empty lot behind the house. I initially thought they were Arctic Warblers, but it turns out that those birds only stay on trees. The Grey and Yellow wagtails look very similar. The grey wagtails are usually found near water though.
