Huge invasion of Waxwings right across the country at the moment.

Lovely shots Mark, not seen any around this way yet so I'm very jealous.

Cheers Dogsey.

It's worth checking your local county report on at least a daily basis. They are all over the country at the moment.

Some gulls flocking to some bread. It's a shame the one bottom left has a bit of wing cut off, but you can't win em all!

Great pic... if you spent a little more time than I did you could make a pretty convincing 'repair'

Good work Steve. Definitely improves the composition. I had spotted that potential "donor" wing and some others on similar shots taken during the same session. A project for the Christmas break!

Very best wishes for Christmas ...

Nice... though I really miss the top right 'out of focus' gull - gives so much depth.

BTW - Nice pics Central
