I wouldn’t know one if I heard one, *but* I saw one for the very first time last week. The house we’ve just moved into has a rowan tree in the garden. Last week a bird I didn’t recognise at first (the waxwing) came in and terrorised all the other birds who were snacking on the rowan berries. Once it had the tree to itself it ate what it wanted and then flew off. Very beautiful bird (and slightly brutal)!

A rowan is a very helpful tree to have around if you like a waxwing. I hope it returns Jo!
