These chaps visited us this last week on and off for a few days.

Gardening is the great leveller.

Gosh, that's a beaut. Are they common round your end? I've never seen one before (but then again, I'm not an experienced twitcher :drunken_smilie:)

Beautiful creatures, would love to see them here, no berry trees in our garden though.

This is only the second year when they have visited. Last year they stayed for about 2 hours and stripped the Rowans and went. This time a small number came over about 2 weeks before they finally went on their way.

How lovely.  I was only saying to OH yesterday that we need to buy some more rowans.  I would love to see Waxwings in this neck of the woods.
