Green woodpecker? They look a bit yellow in some lighting.
And they are keen on any lawns that might have ants.

I am quite convinced it was the Grey Wagtail and that it flew up from the
brick path between the lawns, so what I have done is to scatter some bird
seed on the path and will keep and eye on events from the Lounge or Dining
Room Windows. The front door has obscure windows so I can't see through
there before opening it!!!

Problem is Mike that although Grey Wagtail has vivid yellow on it's belly it
does not have a yellow back which you originally stated. Whereas Green
Woodpecker does have a vivid yellow lower back, seen only in flight.

And a GW is c. 25% larger than the blackbird to which this bird's size
was compared.
