Waxwings in the Loquat Tree

I saw an amazing sight today! I was standing at the kitchen window doing dishes and happened to notice the Loquat tree leaves seemed to be moving, but there was no wind. I got my binoculars and looked closer. There were at least 50 Cedar Waxwings sitting in the tree, filling their bellies with Loquat fruit! I went outside to watch them for about an hour! They were quite noisy..calling to their friends "Hey, Feast in the Loquat Tree at Camp Coffey". They flitted to and fro for awhile, then when their bellies were full, they flew off to find a good spot to take a siesta.

Hope they come back tomorrow!

Oh, and by the way, in case you didn't know, I LOVE Birding!!

I love all the bird stories. I can just picture it. We have a skunk story I'll blog. It's sort of funny. Needed a picture though to really make you see it. Where are you hiding these days? I haven't seen you on-line or heard from you. Hope all is chirping!!!!

Love you,

MOM
