This is a companion to my other Bird of the Day blog, which focuses on birds I have seen in Victoria, Canada.

With the amount of time we have been spending in London lately, I decided it was time to get out my camera and broaden my knowledge of birds of England.

While visiting the picturesque village of Castle Combe in the Cotswolds, I spied this bird walking along the shoreline of the river. Not surprisingly, its tail was wagging up and down incessantly.
