Flashes of yellow in a blue sky

January 01, 2013  •  1 Comment

A little drive this morning on a beautifully clear New Year's Day (what a pleasure it is to see the sun rise again) and an explosion of waxwings over Berkshire.

A couple of hundred back in north Reading and still a good six-dozen or so at a spot just a couple of miles from our house.

Thanks to Mick (who originally found the birds here some weeks ago and who I met today - admiring these birds like me).

Just a few photos below of the hundreds I took this morning of these very approachable winter visitors.

Brilliant Boyo, if I sober up I may well go searching later.
