I'm bad indeed at bird recognition but I saw one the other day that I really
do not recall before. It was a very little larger than a sparrow and much
the same colour but while it was on the ground, its tail had a constant
'bobbing' action, rather like a wagtail. Can anyone help me ID this one?


One of these?

Not, I'm afraid not. We have quite a few wrens here so I do recognise
those. This was bigger than a wren.
