20100319 185, 191 Bohemian Waxwings SERIES.jpg

Shirley's Bay

Five images: From part of a flock of Bohemian Waxwings to a single Waxwing.

Top Image: Vertical pano made up of two images. Shows about 50 Waxwings, part of a large flock of approximately 200. The Waxwings were feasting on berries along a road. Every time a large vehicle passed, they would fly en mass to the top of this tall tree, only to return to eating along the road a short while later.

Crop of about 20 of the Waxwings.

Crop of 14 of the Waxwings.

Close-up of four Waxwings.

Close-up of a single Waxwing.

I bet they ate a lot of berries. Hope no one parked their car anywhere near them. Let's say, I had a bad experience one time :-)

They are beautiful and very elusive. Shirley's Bay and vicinity seem to be a hotspot for them. V.
