There are reports of waxwings near Ayr and near Morpeth
on Bird Guide. Does anyone know if any have been seen
near Edinburgh ?

Hi David
I live at East Craigs (EH12) andwe have had Waxwings (40 t0 50) in the trees
around us for the past two weeks. This afternoon we saw them again in the
large trees above the BT Telephone Exchange at the bus stop.
We also have a show of Redwings around 25 birds.

Which bus stop??
We also saw a flock of 50-60 Waxwings in Craigs Drive EH12 in late November
last year. Possibly the same ones?

Hi Anne
The Waxwings seem to have gone now, possibly due to the unrelenting bad
weather here.
The Redwings also seem to have moved on :-(
Oh well there is always summer I suppose !
Regards
Brian
