The severe overnight frost (by Brigg standards) has made some of the lesser roads in town particularly difficult, and many of our paths. Watch how you go!
Still, no further snow...so far.
One sign of a severe winter is supposed to be the arrival in the UK of highly-coloured waxwing birds from eastern Russia and Scandinavia, where our weather's originating at present. Some years ago a flock was sighted in trees on Albert Street, Brigg, outside Tennyson Close. Many bird-watchers turned out to view them one morning. The first waxwing I ever saw was pointed out to me in the front garden of Glanford School, on Redcombe Lane, Brigg, circa 1970. Just the one on that occasion, as far as I can remember.
Anyone seen waxwings in Brigg this winter?

Are they related to Icarus, Scribs?
How about a photo? Are they the plump birdies with a pinkish plume on their heads?
