Thursday 20th January

Thanks to a text from Stuart Chatwin via John Harris I got the message that a decent flock of Waxwing were in the next road to where I live. To my shame I jumped in the car which was just as well as it happened, 'cos they were not there. They didnt take much finding though, 500 yards away in Poplars opposite the estate pub, the Coniston. They were dropping down on berries on a bit of open ground between the pub and the Co-op. Managed to get a few images before the sun set and remember: these aren't just any Waxwings these are local Waxwings.
