Visiting waxwings are one of the rewards for having a good selection of berry bushes in your garden.
Unfortunately it has been a poor year for some fruit bushes and trees, such as the rowan berries which waxwings particularly like.
Tip:
When berries are scarce, you can sometimes encourage waxwings with hanging apple feeders.
It’s another good waxwing year!
We welcome waxwing records, especially if you have seen a big flock of them.
