  As i sit and write this i am looking at a pair of Redwings feeding on Rowan beeries. They have visited my garden everyday since xmas. I also had my first sighting of a Waxwing last week for 3 days feeding from the same tree

  We were delighted in Derby over the Christmas period to see 20 or so Waxwings taking berries from our Rowan Tree and again the following week sunning and preening themselves on top of a huge hazel tree. They are indeed a wonderful sight to see.

  I saw 6 Waxwings sitting in small Oak Tree in my small garden in Warsash. Hampshire today. They were there for about 30mins,would go off then returned within a couple of before a few others went off. I was very luck to have such a good view off them from my bedroom window.

  Whilst on holiday in Grange over Sands on 19th December we saw at least 50 could have been double that as they completely covered two berry trees either side of the road and impossible to count. Our first sighting of Waxwings, what incredibly beautiful birds. Never saw another one for the whole fortnight! Diane Davies, Cheshire
