    @LunarSea I have been to the medical centre this morning and there are two trees just behind the medical centre; one conifer and one deciduous. I don't know if that is where the wagtails roost.

    Photinia red robin help

    I saw a Red Robin tree for sale this morning and it was £50! I think that's a bit pricey. And it was no more than 6ft high.

    That's right, I have them in my garden, they come in from the hedgerows. I leave them in odd corners because they're pretty and brighten the place up, but I get rid of lots too.
