Yesterday morning I was standing on our lawn feeding the birds when I heard a Waxwing giving it six nowt across the road. Trilling at the top of its tufty voice only being drowned out by a passing lorry. I looked all the while it called but saw nothing. Thats twice in about a week thats happened...its getting irritating now.
Nothing calling this morning though...
Two new links added today -
John Malloy's Blog 'Birding Sometimes' will show some of his excellent pics. Downside, I've removed his website because it didn't work anymore!

Thats as many hits as i get in a week. Agog, indeed Stewart.
Waxwings : No sight or sound of em down here in Barnsley yet. It`s only a matter of time.
told you i was busy
Waxwings made it to Surrey in 2006 - and I've got the evidence to prove it LOL.
A very impressive list Stewart - Wow!
(What site do you use to monitor your visits? mine's not reliable!)
You sure its not just a blackbird you're hearing there Stewart ?!! ;)
Gary - I had considered that. These 'stockhamsels' newly arrived do make seeping contacts, but this was an all out honest to goodness Waxwing.
Tricia - I'll get back to you...Mines probably not reliable either, Theres only 4 of you out there look at my blog !
ST - WAH WAH WAH
Dean - Get some terrier pics on the blog!
Tricia - Click on my small stat counter below the main one. It is statcounter.com...Its a complicated thing and I dont know what its all about but some of the details do look good...
Was only kiddin !
Thanks Stewart - will have a look.
Wow, you are a popular fellow. I checked in yesterday and it doesn't include Newfoundland in the list. I think I know why. My server is in Halifax, Nova Scotia and it automatically puts in where my server is. I say this because one of the other blogs I read has a map indicating where people live who read the blog. I'm down as living in Halifax.
Of course I knew him before he was famous, oh the stories I could tell.
(Cheap attempt at dragging traffic over to my BLOG but hey ho)
I'm very impressed Stew. I might try a counter on mine some time.
