Graham - Love the photo of the Wagtails, never heard of them before!!
Not forgetting the Clothes Line, Bernie!! or the enormous Box Spring!!
I have no idea what type of bird this is but we were visiting the beautiful "Brookgreen Gardens" in Myrtle Beach South Carolina
a couple of years ago and the birds just sat there and looked at you, not scared at all.

patricia,you birdie is a cattle egret.common on all continents and you were right bernie they are quite solitary birds once the breeding season is over.

Hi Graham and Patricia,think you will find that Patricia's photo is of a snowy egret.Cattle egrets do not have black bills or
long black legs with yellow feet but the snowy does have a yellow patch at the beginning of the beak.
