獨家White Wagtail Moving Around

In Japan, white wagtails are a common bird, mainly because they are well adapted to human environments, especially parks with pools. They feed mainly on insects and like to look for prey in open areas, such as parking lots and grass fields in parks.

White Wagtails are widely distributed, from Europe, and North Africa to Asia. Every year when winter comes, they migrate south to warmer areas to spend the winter. So by the end of the year, they can also be found in tropical Singapore.

The white wagtail has a slender body. Its long tails wag up and down all the time, which is also the origin of its English name, "Wagtail." Although various theories exist about why they have this habit, there is no conclusion yet.
