Bird News Monday 4th December

 The Waxwings remain on Islandmagee Road in Whitehead. Anyone considering going to see these birds should note that they are feeding in and a round a school and should try to visit outside school hours. and people taking pictures should be aware of the sensitivities of the site. Also it goes without saying that nobody should enter the school grounds under any circumstances. 

Late news from Friday two Whimbrel were at Ballycastle (Tomás Ó Laihim).

A flock of approximately one hundred Waxwings are in the Larne area. (Bill Guiller).

A Peregrine flew into the Larchfield Estate near Annahilt. (Garry Wilkinson).
