I had to take my pictures from inside the house in this case and, even then, they flew away as soon as I got too close to the window. But, as soon as I moved away, back they came.
My mother-in-law identified them for me: they're Cedar Waxwings.

Garden Party
These guys brought the garden party with them. Apparently, they don't like to bathe alone. As soon as one or two landed to take a dunk in the fountain, the rest of the flock followed.

What a happy little garden party! Birds never come to our birdbath. But I should take pictures of what I call "crow convention." It's like something out of a horror movie. Flocks of crows congregating in the backyard, swooping at you, shoving garbage in the gutters... It's quite the event and it happens every year.
ReplyDeleteA crow convention! It sounds like something Alfred Hitchcock would have loved. Maybe the pictures would make a good Halloween post...
