Waxwing follow up

“I don't feed the birds because they need me; I feed the birds because I need them.”

― Kathi Hutton

I wrote of the waxwing arrival and did get a few pictures.
Unfortunately, they had been around longer than I thought.

I am grateful for the pictures I captured because that was the only day to see them.
The following day, it was very windy and none of my regular birds were flying either.

The sun was not cooperating either and that made colors deeper.  Did a little editing and have to be satisfied with what I have.                                                   Click on picture for larger

Sun made this difficult to get real color. This is close.

Thanks to a continuous shot button, caught this bird on the wing.

This shot looks as if the bird has a feather sticking out the back of head. It is a leaf.

Following the birds from the kitchen window and fretting over the hawks that are always hunting takes my mind off of the aches and pains of "old age".
I can fill hours of looking at my pictures, choosing the best (which is difficult) and preparing for a blog.
I am eternally grateful for being able to do this, even with the frustrating mistakes.
