Waxwings, Gainsborough, Lincs

The sun was shining, the sky was blue so back to Gainsborough we went but afraid most had departed overnight with just 5 remaining from the 17 birds there yesterday. 





















What a difference the sun makes !

Waxwings, Gainsborough, Lincs

The day couldn't have been any more grey, thick dank cloud, drizzle and not a speck of light. Not good for bird photography. So these are the best from the day of the 17 waxwings. A small friendly crowd helped pass the morning and the massive police presence overseeing a nearby eviction gave Karen something to rubber neck at !


















 If the sky is blue tomorrow, we will return because just look at this greyness  !
