Llanon grey wagtail

Well it was blowing a hoolie down on the coast south of Llanon this afternoon so very few birds but along at Morfa Mawr stream there was a 1st winter grey wagtail working the edge of a small puddle as the stream was in spate.
  Going into the wind was no problem but on turning round to go back the wind blew those long tail feathers up and over the bird's head so it was tumbled along.  It recovered enough to swing around and face the wind for another feeding run but same thing happened repeatedly!
I can only assume the bugs in the mud made it worth taking the risk.
