This is a first for my garden. I think it might be a female Grey Wagtail but I'd happily be corrected. Sadly the camera lens was a bit misty after the rain though.

The grey wagtail is another nice garden bird Nick.

It's interesting that both of you see Blackcaps in winter. Thanks to my Youtube analytics I have three other videos featuring Blackcaps since 2021 which were all mid April to early May.
