Twitchers ahoy - Waxwings

[toomuchchocolate]

A Flock of Waxwings (about 30 or so) are feeding off the cotoneaster berries in my garden.

The twitcher who we saw taking photos of our tree told us the birds are Waxwings. Apparently it is very unusual to see them this far inland - more usual in Scotland and East Anglia.

Just googled them, quite exotic looking

I'll send my hawk.

What's the address ?

Toomuchchocolate, there was a posting about this on the local nature thread in the local gossip section. I suspect they're the same ones. You'll get more interest on that thread and thanks for posting.

Wonder if it's the same mob that hit Croxted Road on the 6th.
