Waxwings in Sheffield



So, I saw a flock of Waxwing again today on my way home, I’m glad to see they’re still around! If anyone is from Sheffield and happening to read this I saw them just behind the large B&Q warehouse on Queen's Road, they were headed towards the city centre from there. A flock of around 40, I assume the same flock I saw a couple of weeks ago during the snow.

If only some would breed here – preferably in my back garden :D

Tricia, sure you can have some, right after they've perched nicely in front of one of my windows for at least a couple of hours so I can see them fully :D

I haven't seen them since, but that's hardly a surprise!

Thanks Liz :D Very generous - I'll keep my eyes open for them.

De Rien Tricia :)

In a few years time when my Cotoneasters and Pyracanthus are larger, so really hope they pay me a visit!!
