long bodied lilac scribble wing

The other half is something of a part time bird watcher.

I am not.

I try to show an interest. 

Sometimes.

But standing in a Tesco car park with a load of blokes in questionable camo gear, dodgy beards and enormous lenses on their fancy cameras is just not my thing. 
So I stayed in the car for 35 minutes yesterday while he went and chatted to the weirdy beardies. 
Apparently I missed a rare sighting of a Waxwing. It was over here from Scandinavia. Eating berries. Obvs. 

This isn’t a picture of it. It looks nothing like this. This is an even rarer Long Bodied Lilac Scribble Wing.
