See der waxwing?

This morning I was mixing up a can of orange juice. As I was filling the can with water I happened to notice that the birdbath was completely filled with some very handsome birds I had never seen before. Suddenly, the birds all took off and there was an empty birdbath. Then, just as suddenly, it was filled again with another batch of birds.

The birds turned out to be cedar waxwings. Their diet is supposed to be mainly berries so I don't know why they're hanging around these parts.

They just kept coming and going. I got out my trusty Kodak EasyShare Z740 and made a movie.

The movie isn't terribly clear but you get an idea of what we saw.


Here's a picture of them at another birdbath.

Our birdbaths give us a lot of entertainment.
