Waxy apples, Part 3

It's raining, no surprise there, so to remind us of what sunny weather and blue skies look like, the final few photos of Waxwings from a few weeks ago.





I promise that there won't be any more, not this year anyway!

  1. They've been giving me the slip all winter so it's nice to see some photos at least!

  2. Those close ups are fantastic John.
    A really beautiful bird, and always a favourite.

  8. Up to 50 near the railway line between Werrington / Bretton yesterday morning for around an hour. They didn't seem too enamoured with the few berries that were there and left... no sign today.

    Happy new year by the way.

    1. Thanks Mike,
      They have become slightly thin on the ground around here (for me anyway!), but hopefully I can add them to my 2013 list!
      Happy New Year!
