Bergeronnette grise ( Motacilla alba ) Focus Distance - 10.0 m

            La Bergeronnette grise se nourrit de nombreux invertébrés aquatiques et terrestres. Elle capture des insectes sur le sol après une courte poursuite, mais aussi en volant. Elle poursuit sa proie avec un vol ondulant rapide, ou en voletant brièvement avant de la capturer. Sur le sol, elle chasse en marchant, en exploitant toutes sortes de surfaces depuis les routes jusqu’aux toits des maisons et autres endroits découverts. 
Elle peut capturer des proies en courant et en donnant un coup de bec pour la saisir. Il lui arrive aussi de sauter en l’air pour happer un insecte volant.
**************************************************************
The Yellow Wagtail feeds on numerous aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. She captures insects on the ground after a short chase, but also while flying. She pursues her prey with a fast waving flight, or flutters briefly before capturing it. On the ground, she hunts while walking, exploiting all kinds of surfaces from the roads to the roofs of houses and other places discovered.
She can catch prey by running and pecking to grab it. It also happens to jump in the air to catch a flying insect.
