Waxwings (2 Viewers)

I was fortunate some years ago to get some shots of Waxwings in Southend On Sea. I see posts on social media re Colchester but no other sightings close to me. Anyone help me out here?

There's a Waxwings sightings group on Facebook (probably similar on X/Twitter if you want to dive into that sewer). There was a long staying flock in King's Hill (West Kent), but in my patch of East Kent there have only been small numbers that haven't hung around.

reports yesterday said the Colchester ones have moved on but some have been reported at Wivenhoe a few miles away today so that may be the same ones.
I've posted some pics of the Colchester ones in the Essex Birding thread here: Essex Birding
