Hebbal Lake in north Bangalore is favourite spot for various colourful birds. On one of my visits to the place, I saw a new bird, White-browed Wagtail.
It is a medium-sized bird. Their body color pattern is back above and white below, along with a prominent white brow, shoulder stripe and outer tail feathers. It is a slender bird, with the long wagging tail. At 21 cms it is the largest in species of wagtail.
It is a resident breeder in India and is endemic to the Indian subcontinent. They are seen in pairs or small groups near open water.

Beautiful little bird. A little different markings from our wagtail.

ReplyDeleteLovely! I see a lot of Magpie Robins in my building… sometimes I wonder if I am confusing them with the white-brow wagtail cause they are quite similar in appearance.
