Every year, I get a visit from some of my favorite birds, a huge flock of Bohemian waxwings! Although everything I read says they are rare in the Black Hills, they are a yearly visitor to my crabapple tree...usually stripping it bare within about 15-20 minutes and then traveling on. But during their brief visit yesterday, I was fortunate to be at my desk with my camera ready, and I was able to take more pictures of waxwings than I will ever need!
These birds are so much fun to watch as they frantically eat every berry in sight, taking flight as every car drives by, then flying back in as a flock minutes later. They had my tree stripped in no time and then were gone...leaving me with a memory card full of the antics of these colorful, entertaining birds!
