I set the alarm for 4:30 a.m. on Sunday to get the series and it was definitely worth it. I will try again Monday early am if I can get out of bed. Thank you for the compliment.

First (white) wagtail I ever spotted at our local ponds.

Thanks Click.
My fav it pic 3.
I'm still guessing if it is looking to the ground in search of food, or to the sky, or to wherever

Gone through my bird book and can't match this one to anything. Anyone know what it is? I'm guessing some kind of Sparrow but can't match the coloration. Location is near Vancouver, BC and taken yesterday.
