12th & 13th January 2013

Spent the last 2 days at Ladywalk NR & nearby Edison Rd outflow trying for pics of the Firecrest & the (Presumed) Not By Me!! Siberian Chiffchaff failing on both counts the Firecrest showed well on the footpath near the river but was always high or deep in amongst the branches!! The Chiffchaff was constantly on the move on the 12th but wanting to get good views & hear it didn't even try for photos on the 13th it was elusive all day only bein seen a cpl of times & calling a few times!! The bird seems to show all the features needed for Siberian & the call seems spot on!!So with no photos of both target birds just had a play with the common birds near the feeders with a bonus Waxwing high up nearby!!
