[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I used the my car as a hide while trying (almost desperatly ) to get a good photo of a meadow pipit. I never succeeded in that but I encountared this White Wagtail walking an a rubble wall towards me. Managed to take a couple of shot before it flew off.
Anyways hope you like it..

Nice bird shot, Matthew.
On my screen is little to bright.
Nice details.

Hi Matt,
Very sharp shot considering the conditions. I see you had to contend with harsh light and the surroundings did not offer very good contrast but it is quite rare that one gets all the right conditions when taking nature shots. My compliments on your results. The only niggle is that distracting blur on the lhs that could have been very easily cropped out.
