Bye Bye Blue (Camera, that is)

This isn't quite the showstopper I was hoping for for what I believe is my 3000th blip, but despite a good range of birds along the river in the city, (newly arrived Sand Martins, Kingfishers patrolling, Chiffchaffs singing,  Long-tailed Tits collecting nesting material), it was this Grey Wagtail that provided the only real photo opp I got, landing on a wall nearby as I was waiting by a busy dual carriageway for a bus back to the centre. I had put my camera back in my bag, and it was patient enough to wait while I wrestled it out and attempted to hold it steady.
A big thank you to those of you who have kept visiting my journal despite my very mixed record in commenting  - you know who you are :-). I appreciate your stopping by, even if I don't always reciprocate as I often as I would like.
