Waxwings in Hungerford

Today's adventure was to WWT Slimbridge - a chance to add some more to the Year list.
Picking Tim up at 10 am, I decided to go via Hungerford for fuel and see if the previously reported Waxwing were feeding on bushes by the A338 / A4 junction.
Pulling up to the junction I saw around 30 birds sat on the telegraph wires.
A closer look revealed them to be Waxwing.. And a lot of them!
Considering I had only ever seen 1 - and that was in 2010 towards the end of the year.. I considered this a worthy diversion.
Sorry Tim.




And then it was on to Slimbridge.
