Waxwings.

[carrust]

4 have been spotted in my own fair city:-) Gorra day off tomorrow so I'll go and have a look-see.

[Tilly2]

Hope they haven't flown away by then, rusty.

[Prudie]

Good luck carrust. I saw them for the first time in my life last year, what a thrill it was.

[boxtops]

Good luck! I still remember having a host of redwings land in my garden one year to eat berries - it was wonderful.

[carrust]

I got about 80 waxwings in my front garden 2 years ago. Gness was spitting feathers:-)

[tonyav]

Bet you didn't see any in Halesowen, rusty.

[carrust]

I saw plenty of other wildlife in the 1st hotel I was booked into. I've just looked on trip advisor & was totally panned by most of the reviewers!

[carrust]

'it'

[Tilly2]

What were they eating in your garden, rusty?

[gness]

Spitting feathers!!!!! I had to have counselling!!!!!

[Tilly2]

Ah, right. I wonder if I might get some on my Pyracantha shrubs? You never know.

[Tilly2]

Rusty, you can't go there. It's awful!

[tonyav]

Ah, Oldbury. That explains it then, rusty.

[carrust]

We had 1 night there tilly. It was a total & utter sh1ttip. I slept in my clothes!

[tonyav]

Why Oldbury, rusty ?.

[Tilly2]

Did you actually get into one of those awful beds? I wouldn't have done. I'd have slept in a chair. Urghhh!

The contractor booked it tony. He said it was the closest one to the job, all the other hotels were fully booked. His room was worse than mine; he had a plywood window:-)
