  2. An invasion!
    Once in Sarasota I saw a flock of red billed Ibis berth themselves in a Lychee Nut tree, in two minutes they had eaten all that fruit then took skyward again in a mass ascension.

    These waxwings are numerous... are they migrating already?

  3. Wow. That is a lot of cedar waxwings. I love how they are mouthing off to each other. I bet you were excited having that new camera and a great opportunity. Good job.

  4. FC, hehehe.

    Fishy, yep, they're migrating. I hope they stick around a few more days.

    Shamy, I was doing the BIG happy dance yesterday!!!!!!!

    Been trying for a week and a half to get some pics of the little suckers.

    Thanks Danielle. :)

  8. Granny, I don't know what was going on with those two, but they were picking on each other the whole time I was out there.

    Tabor, thanks for stopping in. :) Hope you have a great weekend!

    Boxer, couldn't have asked for better skies. Beautiful perfect blue.

  11. Oh wow! I live in South Florida - Ft. Lauderdale area - and I'd LOVE to see a Cedar Waxwing. They are more toward the center of the state than the south, I'm afraid. I did see that someone had located one just north of Margate, so I'll check there.....you have a whole tree full of them - how magnificent!!
