Wax on Wax off

I got a little impatient waiting for some local Waxwings the other weekend so after a productive trip up to Sleddale with my daughter, we took a circular route back to Thirsk via Kirkbymoorside where some waxwings had been reported on Birdguides. Add a little sunshine into the mix and here are the results:

15 Waxwings

More seem to be appearing closer now with reports in Middlesbrough and Strensall today.

  1. Some good images of the waxwings. We caught up with a flock of over 20 near Kildale, on the road to Sleddale today along the railway line but didn't get any decent shots as it was late in the day.
