Excellent views of 7 Waxwings today driving through Haggersta (that's an eats shoots and leaves sort of sentance isn't it? Bizarre mental image of joyriding Waxwings drunk on berries...). Anyway, you know what I mean. One minute driving along the road minding my own business, the next minute with a Waxwing flying alongside me not six feet from the drivers window, leading a flock of half a dozen others in a kamikaze-style dash along the main road heading for oncoming traffic.
One of the world's best ever insurance claims ("Seven Waxwings flew through my windscreen, so I crashed the car...") was averted when they peeled off at the last minute and settled in a small garden. V relieved for them, though just slightly shamefully wistful (how cool would a stuffed Waxwing be to have in your study?!).
So much for my carping about never finding my own Waxwings. Must start complaining about not finding my own Long-tailed Shrikes and see if this tenous theory holds.
Staggering amount of rumourmongering going on about the Done-in (the) Ovenbird on Scilly. To the tune that it was trodden on/sat on/hit repeatedly with a stick until it gave crippled views to all present. I wonder how many of the rumours were generated by those unable to get there before the weekend? Cynic!
Forget all I said about Shetland being the new Scilly next year - instead expect to see hordes of twitchers renting accomodation in Mousehole and watching their pagers expectantly for the next mega to be "found" at the bird sanctuary.
