This keeps appearing on a building site a friend is working on, not much use as it cannot brick lay!

Any ideas.

Maybe a pied wagtail that's gone overboard with the white colouration? Odd that it has red legs and a beak profile a bit like a chough but why no red beak?

PO wagtails are common on tarmac, car parks etc where they find insects.

Was this sighting near the welsh coast orsouth west coast perhaps?

^ It's got the right legs and trousers. Shame I can't make out the base of the bill.

Op how big was it?
