Waxwings on the march
I was lucky enough to spot 17 Waxwings over the City Centre today at 12:15 whilst I was on the TUC organised anti-government funding cuts march and rally! The birds flew over St Georges Hall, presumably from the area in Scotland Road they have been frequenting, they then circled over Lime Street/Copperas Hill area for a couple of minutes before heading South towards Toxteth, a strange sight indeed over the City! A Peregrine over the city too, as one was yesterday over University of Liverpool.

Danny,
I've been watching a large flock (60 birds) of Waxwings on Aigburth Road for over a week now. They're on the central reservation by St Margarets School and coming down to feast on the berries by Milner Road.

Hi Robin
Thanks for the tip off, I will try and get down over the next few days. If you see them again please let me know, many thanks

Hi Robin,
nice sighting - I'm not surprised they are just in that spot - that was one of the spots I was visiting regularly back in November and December looking for them. Now that I've left the country they decide to go there.
