A mild but grey day with light rain and drizzle on and off throughout the day.
Very quiet with nothing of interest seen other than 3 Pied Wagtails in Foxhill park at lunchtime and a Dunnock in full song in the surrounding bushes.
Well done to NK for spotting a Waxwing on his home ground this a.m. ( see Queensbury birder) , this is a species that produces only the one sighting a year in Queensbury,perhaps when the new Tesco trees mature more Waxwings will be tempted.
