Just moved house to Consett,County Durham and was surprised to see a flock of birds in the garden which i have not seen before,the birds have been coming and going for about a week now,i have identified the bird as a waxwing and understand that they do occasionally venture across from EUROPE.They tend to land in numbers,20 was my last count,they are attracted by a tree with red berries on it as soon as they land they stuff as many berries in as they can and quickly fly off again,repeating this throughout the day.Has anybody had any experience with the waxwing,is it quite common to see this?
