strange bird
10 Answers
saw the strangest bird recently, it was about the same size as a wagtail but a different shape, a tiny, tiny head with small very narrow, short, very thin pointy beak. Had a humped shaped back, one very long pure white tail feather slightly bent upwards - pale grey wings slightly darker edged and a pure white body. I had a really good look at it (5/6 minutes) and was particularly struck by the fact it looked 'odd' - I had a very clear view of it as it flew off and it's body was definitely pure, pure white. Sighted in SE England.
