waxwings!!!!

Well what a fantastic day! A superb kestrel hovering at head height just opposite Aston Clinton recycling centre gave a prolonged view as it hovered motionless over the verge. The red-legs had been joined by two others but were in the same field as last week. Leeds almost did it at Arsenal....the sun came out and the waxwings appeared. Beautiful blue skies and plump, crested birds in the rowans along Griffin Lane. Loved the male house sparrow chirping away from the bushes opposite the entrance to Tesco...can't believe that was the first for the year!
