Sunday 28th November - Waxwings

Up and out just after 6.30 this morning to take Hannah to school for her Biathlon. It was -5c !!!!! So having returned home before 8am, the plan was to stay with Adie whilst Sally went to watch Hannah compete in Crawley. Managed to fit in a quick visit to Chichester with Adie to see 13 Bohemian Waxwings - not a regular visitor to this part of the country but lovely birds to see. The light was poor so only record shots were in order as the birds were sitting at the top of a tree next to the road and occassionaly dropping down into gardens for berries. A good number of people were there watching but after about 15 minutes they flew off rather purposefully, which Adie was quite pleased about as she was asking when we could go ! - it was still 0c so she had a point.
