Hi Linda, It is "extremely" unlikely that they were Bohemian Waxwings.

She is a biologist at Christopher Newport University and has been a back-yard birder since her early teens. She reports seeing about fifty Bohemian Waxwings drinking from her birdbath a couple days ago. They drank their fill, then moved on. One unfortunate bird had a fatal encounter with a window. She has bagged and frozen it to give to the university's ornothology program. I don't recall any other sightings of Bohemian Waxwings in this area, but would welcome comments from other birders.
