Hello,
Today at Seahurst Park.........a large flock (dozens and dozens) of
foraging and flycatching Cedar Waxwings were moving through the canopy. A
few were seen about three days ago, but this flock is a great increase in
numbers. It's unusual for August to be seeing this species in a west
Burien, WA, sea-level forest park. Winter or early spring is more likely
for Cedar Waxwings around here, I would think.
Most curious,
Maureen
