Whadda you mean "Leave some for the Waxwings"?

Whadda you mean "Leave some for the Waxwings"? (Turdus pilaris)

We were here first! We're leaving these for ourselves, doncha know.

Still, they have (so far) left quite a few for the Waxwings. I've only seen the Fieldfares here on two days (touch wood). These shots are all from day 2, and as you can see there were a lot of berries still on the shrub towards the end of day 2, especially on the side nearest the house. But the Waxwings had better hurry before the Fieldfares come back again. They may come mob-handed next time and finish off what's left.
