A few from our hour out this morning

Grey Wagtail 

Pied Wagtail

Heron

Lovely pictures again!!
White wagtail, but I'm not sure what the other bird is?
Thanks for sharing

Thanks Both, I have labelled them now to help with your ID skills ;-)

Thank you!! I thought it was a grey wagtail, but just wasn't sure

The weather hasn't been very nice today but there were a few visitors to the garden (and finches hiding behind branches!)

Bear and I went on one of our favourite walks today and I forgot to take the big camera so phone has to do 

This is a very old Jersey past-time - Vraic harvesting - it used to be done with horse and cart - few farmers do it these days and you can tell the difference mostly used by a particular family that grow on very sandy fields in the North West corner of the Island and they have the best new potatoes 

There was a distant Heron sea fishing - you will have to take my word for it 

Well I'm blowed, I didn't know potatoes were grown in such sandy areas, will the tide cover them Caroline?

I'll take some photos of the fields - they are low lying but it's pretty rare for the sea to breach over the sea wall - the tractors are taking the vraic (tends to comprise of kelp and bladder wrack) to the fields where it's left on the surface for a few weeks before being ploughed in - great fields to watch various Pipits and Wagtails

Very interesting Caroline, can we have a pic of Bear too next time?
