[birdky] Blankenbaker Cemetary Lake

Spotted a Cedar Waxwing near the Blankenbaker Cemetary. I was standing by the 
graves of Robert Orr and Mary House Orr trying to imagine what their lives had 
been like in the late 1800's, when out of nowhere a Cedar Waxwing landed on a 
branch three feet from my head and right at eye level. It perched there for 
about 30 - 45 seconds just staring at me staring at it. A neat moment with a 
cool looking bird for sure.
Also spotted two Killdeer skittering along the rip-rap that was recently added 
to the bank of the lake. I wonder if the rip-rap is what attracted them, 
because I've not seen them before. Mallards, Canadas, and American Black Ducks 
were present as well.
