BornAgainSELondoner Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 One for the ornithologists among you...I keep hearing that it's a good winter for waxwings, but I've not seen one yet. Anyone seen any in the ED area? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/27361-waxwings/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
computedshorty Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Waxwing have a hard time finding food here.In some winters waxwings do indeed fail to find food. Many died on reaching this country one year following severe weather in northern Europe. When this happens the population crashes bringing invasions here to an end for several winters.This winter a small-scale influx of waxwings reaches the East Coast of England from mid-December with flights of up to 40 appearing in Norfolk. There is no goal bar food for wandering waxwings. And that food may be anywhere within a very great area of country.
