Motacillidae, commonly known as wagtails and pipits, are a diverse family of small passerine birds. One of the most well-known species is the yellow wagtail (Motacilla flava thunbergi), with its vibrant plumage adding a splash of color to meadows and wetlands. Another member of this family is the rock pipit (Anthus petrosus), which can be found foraging among seaweed on the strand. In spring, adult male pied wagtails (Motacilla alba yarrellii) showcase their striking plumage while feeding on dung flies. Their black and white feathers create a beautiful contrast against green fields. Similarly, adult male yellow wagtails (Motacilla flava flavissima) don their colorful attire during this season as they diligently search for food. The grey wagtail (Motacilla cinerea) prefers habitats near water bodies, such as rivers or streams. In February in Kent, UK, one can spot these elegant birds amidst lush vegetation. On the other hand, meadow pipits (Anthus pratensis) prefer rough grasslands in Scotland during May 2010 when they hop along the ground searching for insects. Venturing further south to Auckland Island in New Zealand brings us to the Auckland Island pipit (Anthus novaeseelandiae). This charming bird perches gracefully among flowers while going about its daily activities. Heading east to Latvia reveals another fascinating species - the citrine wagtail (Motacilla citreola). The males often perch on reeds in April showcasing their bright yellow plumage against a backdrop of marshy landscapes. Back at Gaoligong Mountain National Nature Reserve lies an enchanting scene where a grey wagtail stands at waters edge - truly capturing nature's tranquility. Meanwhile, an adult female yellow wagtail finds solace perched amidst oilseed rape crops.
