A walk out with the dog this morning & a quick check of the local rowans produced no Waxwings so headed upto the woods on the way back though the distinct sound of Waxwings could be heard with at least 50 birds feeding on Thorntons Way on Rose hips by the old subway,the same place as back in Dec,popped into the local shop & 5 birds were back on Kingswood Rd briefly! A quick check on Seeswood produced the 1st winter White-fronted Goose with Greylags in the field 1 back from the fishermans carpark! Driving back from town & a single Waxwing was on telegraph wires on Tomkinson Rd just up from the Cock & Bear jnc.
