There's a Waxwing somewhere near here (between Fordham and Chippenham if you want to make a quick dash for it).
A Waxwing.
ONE Waxwing.
A Bohemian Waxwing to be precise (in contrast to the North American Cedar Waxwing).
Years back, when I lived on the south coast, I was eaten up with envy that we had none at all, while Waxwings invaded East Anglia in their thousands. Well, hundreds anyway.
And in the twenty something years that I have been up here in East Anglia, I have seen scarcely a one.
And now, there is ONE between Fordham and Chippenham.
One solitary miserable bloody Waxwing.
It's enough to make person take up philately, but, as we all know, philately will get you nowhere.
