Grey wagtail

Motacilla cinerea is a bird with grey dorsal side and yellow ventral, males having dark throat. They are seen in meadows near pools of water as pairs or groups, feeding on insects.

They are often seen in Andaman during cool months like December,January, February with short, sharp shrilling calls. So their sighting indicates advent of winters.
