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!
