Large WAXWING flock still present in Milton Keynes

Made a quick detour on my way to MK shopping centre with wife and daughter - there were 152+ waxwings roosting in the large tree at intersection of Illingworth Place and Century Avenue at 15:30-1545 this afternoon, making a fantastic noise!

I'm not sure what they have been feeding on, but as we drove through the estate towards the shopping centre, there still appeared to be many berry laden bushes (Bill Parker)
