Citrine Wagtail at Marazion Marsh

My first visit to Marazion for a while, found lots of people looking for a Citrine Wagtail. Well I managed to get a few images of it, but none of them quite nailed it; low light teleconverter and distance all not helping. Normally I wouldn't of put these low quality images on the blog, however I am well informed that this bird is a rarity so the images are published below.
