It's a Waxwing Winter @ Parklands

We had a really special treat this week at school when a flock of around 50 waxwings decided to visit our school to eat some of the red berries on our trees. These are a rare bird from Scandinavia that sometimes winters in this country. These birds were in the trees outside Class 6 so a massive thank you to Mrs Kilarski for interrupting her maths lesson to let her class have a look at these beautiful birds. Quite rightly - Waxwing was our Bird of the Day!

As if that wasn't enough, birdwatching club in the wildlife garden also recorded these birds on our feeders:
6 chaffinches
1 coal tit
1 great tit
1 robin
1 blue tit
1 pigeon
1 goldfinch

Let me know if you see any Waxwings around
