The Waxwings are still here although not in large numbers. This one decided to sit nearly right above me while I was watching our Bluebirds.
Thanks for looking.

Lovely shots, Brad. I would love to see this bird in real life some time. They're so beautiful.

I love these guys; but haven't quite learned their habits yet. Perhaps I'll track down some great shots like these this summer.

Thanks for sharing!

Brad,

These are both fabulous shots, you exposed and brought out there silky smooth feather detail nicely, Love the environment in the shots as well as it frames the bird nicely..
