A pari of these birds are always to be found in the same spot on the road or footpath. I saw them aggressively chase away a Noisy Miner which is an unusual sight.

Lovely photo Ann of such feisty fearless bird
Dont take life too seriously, it never ends well
Nice shot - they will take on bigger birds such as ravens and kookaburras too. Maybe they have a nest around there that they are protecting.
Lovely shot Ann...any bird that chases a noisy miner away is a freind of mine.
Cheers,
Ron.
Thanks all!

Aiming for DSLR-quality shots with a bridge camera
Adore Willie wagtails! They are such officious little folk and remind of busy little clerks flittering around making sure everything is exact... I can easily imagine them carrying little clipboards and checking off lists.
Thanks for sharing.
Happy Birding!

I love these little birds. So brave! We have a pair nesting off our verandah and hoping this year young ones are ok.
Thanks, yes I agree, busy and bossy!
There must be a nest around somewhere but they don't seem to hang out very close to it, maybe they claim a large area as their territory.
