This afternoon about 1:00 PM after returning from the store I heard the
unmistakable shrill whistle of Cedar Waxwings. Looking up I saw a flock of
about 20 fly overhead and land in the top of a tall oak tree in my side yard.
I continued to hear their calls in the vicinity of a mulberry bush in my
backyard but going to investigate I could not see any to get photographs of.
Also seen were, a Red-tailed Hawk being chased by three American Crows, a
Carolina Wren at one of my suet feeders, numerous Barn Swallows Circling
overhead, and a fledgling American Robin that has been flying awkwardly around
my yard for the past three days giving me great photo opportunities.
I put up a 150 lb.. cement bird feeder on my deck and finally got my
Hummingbird feeders out and am working to plant and add everything I can to
attract as many species of birds to my yard as I can..
Good Birding!
