This speciesof wagtail is quite rare in my city. Yes, there, in the whole region. I only met him 4 times. And it seems that this bird did not live here, but simply flew by and stopped to rest.
This species is very difficult to distinguish from the tree pipit, even I could not do it, I was helped by an ornithologist from the city university. As I understand it, the main difference is a wide white eyebrow, as well as a barely noticeable speck on the ear.
