Kennell Vale part 2

Following on from the Kennell Vale Dipper in last nights blog:  While waiting for the Dipper to return I also had a very nice show from a Grey Wagtail that flew into one on the quieter shallows for a wash and brush-up, It spent several minutes splashing about with its body lowered into the water and even completely submerged itself on two occasions,  I wondered if it might be aping the Dipper which does so constantly when foraging for larva.  Bath-time over and this colourful lively bird spent a little time wading along the top of one of the rivers gentler falls  picking off a few submerged insects before flitting off further up steam.
