Saw a small flock of waxwings (approx.dozen)preening themselves in a large tree at bottom of my garden. Must have been bathing in the near-by artificial lake.(Teus. & Wed. of this week) New Southgate , North London.
I have just been fortunate enough to see a flock of about 10 wax wings sat in a tree in one of the neighbours gardens. It took me quite a while to find out what they are on google and after finding and reading this blog I feel quite lucky! Keighley, West Yorkshire, 25/3/2011
We spotted a small group of unusual birds in our Cotoneaster Tree and, having checked out our book and the website, can confirm they were Waxwings! Nice to see something different passing through and stopping off in our very small garden here in Caversham, Reading, Berks.
saw half a dozen waxwings in my Paisley garden this afternoon - all tucking in to red and orange pyracantha berries, really amazing to see these beautiful birds here!
I counted 25 in the tree opposite my house in Canford Heath, Poole on friday and yesterday they came back to the same tree but this time there were in excess of 50. It was amazing to see so many beautiful birds, especially as they don't usually venture this far south.

Forest Hill is just over the brow from here. They must be in East Dulwich soon, mustn't they?
