I check the Watauga River in Carter County for the annual tic on Cedar Waxwings 
because there are several adult holly trees along the river and this year they 
are really red with holly berries. A scan with binoculars shows about 50-50 red 
and green (leaves). 

Though I didn't see any waxwings in the holly trees I got a pleasant surprise 
when I put the binoculars on what at first appeared to be a large blackbird 
flocks and discovered every one of them had crests. By conservative count 210 
of the rascals.
