Motacilla grandis

Least Concern

The Japanese Wagtail is a wagtail, pipit, or longclaw of Eurasian and African grasslands, wetlands, mountains, and seasonal migration routes. It forages actively on the ground or along water edges for insects, seeds, and small invertebrates, and many species undertake long seasonal movements between northern breeding grounds and warmer winter habitats.
