Wonderful Waxwings
... ornamental trees bearing berries. They really like Rowan/sorbus/Mountain Ash and these trees are often used to make supermarket car parks and similar places less grim and off-putting - so this is where you might find them.
Today's Waxwings were almost against the form, being in a pleasant enough residential area a couple of miles from Wolverhampton city centre. They weren't hard to find because there was an ornamental Rowan absolutely dripping with pink ...

Although really I think those France things i.e documents & info are available online, but there are some things, like my own lists of what to bring and do, which I think I'd appreciate now to subdue my excitement.
