A couple of days ago, while walking along the pier with the fishing boats in Glyfada, I met this friend and had the chance to take a couple of shots. The grey wagtail (Motacilla cinerea) is a common little bird in Greece and one can see many in the cities and parks during winter. We say that when we see it, we are going to have bad weather in the following days. ....and today, it was snowing downtown Athens and the temperatures are around zero Celsius. In other places the temperatures went well bellow the freezing point.
Πριν δυο-τρεις μέρες ενώ περπατούσα στην παραλία της Γλυφάδας, ανάμεσα στις βάρκες συνάντησα αυτόν τον μικρό φτερωτό φίλο. Τη σουσουράδα(Motacilla cinerea) που μου έδωσε την ευκαιρία να τραβήξω μερικές φωτογραφίες της. Λένε πως όταν την δούμε, θ' ακολουθήσει κακοκαιρία. Κρίνετε μόνοι σας αν είναι αλήθεια.

Very sweet looking little bird and maybe it was looking for a handout before the snows come;') Take care~
He was right!
