Yellow (Motacilla flava) and Citrine (Motacilla citreola) wagtails from my last walk along the lake. At one point I was surrounded by all three wagtail species that live in my city; the yellow ones were foraging near the waves, the citrine ones were walking in the grass, looking very much like little lemons, and the white wagtails were peacefully taking a bath in the puddles.

The grey wagtail (lat. Motacilla cinerea) runs through the ruins near the river and collects insects.🐦
