Wax,Hessle,East Yorkshire,9th March 2020.

After hearing a flock of Waxwings had been located near to my home town of Hessle and as i had a free morning,i decided to pop over for a look.
 After eventually finding a parking place,the bird were quickly found and showed nicely through the scope,ideal for a bit of phone scoping video.They had chosen a very precarious place to choose for food,sandwiched in between the busy Clive Sullivan Way and Livingstone Road and there were a few moments were i thought they could have been hit by a car,but thankfully they all survived while i was present.
 It was really nice to see a flock of these beautiful scandinavian visitors and that trilling,bell like call was a feature of the whole visit.
 It was also nice to bump into Mick Turton and Simon & Karen as i watched these crackers.
 After an enjoyable few hours it was soon time to head home and prepare for my nightshift,but it had been a lovely morning watching these northern beauties.
