Panic photography grabbed me by the throat when I arrived home from work tonight, as I walked into the house calling for Lisa I was told to keep quiet as there were two Bohemian Waxwing in the garden and I had just walked past them (Waxwing in the garden on christmas, eve, WOW!!!). They were feeding on some apples I had put out for the thrushes. I grabbed the camera and captured what I could in the dusky light. Unfortunately I had to use the in built flash due to the low light, this didn't phase them at all as they were feeding voraciously. They look like first winter Waxwing as the wing stripes are rather pale. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE
