We get yellow and pied wagtails in our garden and we put out a mixture of seeds, peanuts, suet and fat. They seem to go for the seed. If you go to your pet shop and look at what food is available it will tell you on the packet which birds it suits. I don't know there usual habitat but we live in the middle of nowhere surrounded by farmland if that helps.
