Waxwings return.....

Waxwings have made an annual appearance, outside our home, in Cottingham, East Yorkshire, for the last 10 years. This years flock was greater than 50 birds. Waxwings are a welcome visitor from the far north and could have travelled from as far away as northern Russia. 2011 has been a boom year for these migrating birds, probably in part due to poor berry crops in Scandanavia.
