Cedar Waxwings

We had great weather over the past weekend with temperatures around 75* and had time to enjoy it..... but that all comes to a screeching halt today. We are supposed to get rain, sleet, snow and temperatures aren't supposed to get over freezing until Saturday.

Over the weekend I was headed out to go to my new favorite pond to get a few duck photos. As I was pulling out of the driveway I saw about a dozen Waxwings busy feeding on our Pear trees. So I pulled out into the street and parked the car and setup the camera. I took hundreds of photos as they took their time eating.

Here a just a few that I have processed so far. I'm still going through the shots that I took. Thanks for taking the time to look in.


Nevertheless the Mockingbird wasn't happy about the visitors eating his berries. Here he is looking for his next opportunity to strike.

nicely done Brad

Lovely set of images of this beauty, Brad.

Great shots Brad. Well done.

super series, Brad

Nice set! We dont see this species down here in South Texas. At least i dont.

Regards,

Beautiful shots Brad....I'm keeping my fingers crossed that some of these guys show up around here this year before heading back north.

Funny mine always keep one eye on his "berries" too!
