I was a little surprised to see a couple of birders around when we got there, mainly since it was a Saturday afternoon and the shop was busy. No sign of the bird when I arrived, so I had a quick walk about and having seen nothing except a Song Thrush, I walked back to the car park. One of the other birders was signalling to me that it was back, so I went over for a look.
Apparently the Waxwing had flown in with a flock of Starling, conveniently perching at the top of a tree for all to see. It didn't seem to mind all the shoppers around, so we were able to get close for some good views.

When I left the store it had moved on to the patch of trees where I'd seen the Song Thrush (opposite the golf course) and a group of birders from Yorkshire had their scopes on it.
