Once again Gainsborough Road has a nice flock of Waxwings. Today I was on a flying visit, and could only spare a maximum of 30 minutes looking for these birds, so given their well known mobile nature, I wasn't too confident of success.
However, once again I was lucky, and saw a a nice flock of 17 birds within less than 5 minutes of arriving. Great stuff!

I saw a small flock of 10 Wax Wings in Whiston park opposite Whiston Hospital Nr the Green Dragon Pub. They where just sat in a berry tree right next to the path at the far end of the park at the rear of the houses. You could stand on the path and be within a few feet of them. They appeared totally unfazed apart from being harassed by a few Thrushes.
