Meet Cecilia

Not quite the inevitable snow blip. We have a regular pair of Pied Wagtails visiting whenever the weather gets really cold.The male looks so like a city gent strutting around in black and white that we thought he deserved a name like Cecil, naturally she had to be Cecilia. During this morning's snow she was perched on top of this b ird box preening herself, sheltered by the overhang of the eaves.
