York Wax

I forgot to mention that on the way out to the forest yesterday, Rich and me stopped off in York, to check out a Waxwing that had been found the previous day. 

We spotted the Waxer atop a large tree as we came round the roundabout near Skeldergate Bridge. Rich put his hazards on and stopped the traffic while I binned it through the windscreen. 

We parked up and joined Ollie for a closer look.  It stayed put, casually preening in the tree. It looked like an adult. Stacks of Redwings, Fieldfares and even Mistle Thrush were gorging on the Rowan berries, giving great views.
