The suggestion sounds quite good! :-)<br />For example look here:<br />http://www.konnykrebs.de/bachstelze.html<br />It's a german page, but with good pictures.<br />Moreover the position of the nest, onboard a ship, is quite typical for a wagtail.<br />I hope I could help!<br /><br />Best wishes from Munich, Germany.<br /><br />MartinMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13474004373615310908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9084382800826457412.post-37689543697317431482010-06-30T13:20:23.881+01:002010-06-30T13:20:23.881+01:00Hi Jason,
