Jay at the College

Was at the College at first light today a single jay showed briefly and a grab shot is all I managed.
 
 
8 Bullfinch (3 Male 5 Female) were showing well but the light was terrible.

 
Waxwings came in briefly seemed to be a bit unsure of the surroundings and were very flighty,
just record shots as they are all heavily cropped.
At least 20 flew over so numbers are picking up.

    This is encouraging, I think I'll be heading there at first light. Was great seeing the Bullfinches, I just wish they would come to the front of the tree; the auto focus doesn't like branches in the way!
