I found this wagtail from Jan 2025, but is it pied or white? Clues from βBritainβs Birdsβ lead me to suspect itβs a white, but itβs tricky when I lack the knowledge. Norfolk UK

Wildlife group on Wednesday near Atcham produced sunshine but with a chilly wind. Sheltered spots produced 1st Bee-fly (Bombylius major) or the year, what I think should be Armadillidium depressum (not able to close up more than shown) and the cute spider Micaria pulicaria sensu lato
