Motacilla capensis
This familiar wagtail can be seen throughout South Africa.
I first photographed it in April 2010 while on our wedding weekend at Hartford House in the Midlands.
In July 2012 while on a boat trip along the Ockavango River in Namibia, we recorded and photographed “simplicissima”, a subspecies of cape wagtail, which has a breast spot instead of a breast band.
