Waxwings At Last




Mr F & I finally got our first sighting of a Waxing or should I say an ever increasing flock of Waxings. Up to 200 possibly more. However this was not without cost as we got caught up in a heavy snowstorm. I was very very afraid, of damaging the BMW !!!! and or ourselves. If Ian had not been at my side pushing me to continue driving at a much higher speed than I thought safe it would have been a different story altogether. We got home safe after 6 hours but if I had been on my own I fear a dented car, a demented woman and a night on the hard shoulder of the motorway.

Here is a view of the snow before it became really bad & then dark. It was -2.5 whist we were driving. Also the aforementioned & much prized Waxwings.
