The one on the right has white tips to the primaries, quite a thick band of yellow on the tail and a sharp border to the throat patch.

Suggests Ad ♂︎

SheringhamWaxwing281122-2-NEF_DxO_DeepPRIME

SheringhamWaxwing281122-3-NEF_DxO_DeepPRIME

More tricky - no white tips to the primaries, three red tips to the secondaries. Difficult to see the nature of the throat patch.

Likely 1st W ♂︎
SheringhamWaxwing281122-4-NEF_DxO_DeepPRIME

Judging by the well defined throat patches these are both males but age?

SheringhamWaxwing281122-5-NEF_DxO_DeepPRIME

Strong, well defined white tips to the primaries. Good amount of yellow on wing and tail. Throat patch a little less easy to see.

Probably Ad ♂︎

SheringhamWaxwing281122-6-NEF_DxO_DeepPRIME

The one on the right. No white tips on primaries. Thin yellow band on tail.

Porbably 1st W ♀︎
