A Little Glamour in Suburbia

Probably our most eruptive species, it's that time of the year when Waxwings can turn up just about anywhere, or alternatively you can chase them throughout the entire winter and see not a single one. I lucked out, this flock of a dozen birds spent half an hour flitting between a TV aerial and a front garden just down my street.
Virtually identical in size to Starlings it's worthwhile to avoid assuming and checking that really is a flock of the shiny black birds, you just might get lucky too.
