As I was walking past Caerphilly castle this evening, I saw a kingfisher sat on a rock at the edge of the moat. What a lovely little bird. I'm sure I've never seen one in real life before. I walked towards it but it flew into a bush.

For some reason there are forecasts that his year will be a "Waxwing year" when they pop up almost anywhere there is some food to be had. Your Rowan berries(if you've any left) would be ideal. :)
