Bohemian(?) Waxwings, Louisville

[Paula Hansley]

At dawn this morning I heard the trill of waxwings in my Washington Hawthorne tree.  I was expecting them any day because the  bright red berries that are loading the branches are finally ripe!

I did not see them because it was barely light,, but their trills sounded more like Bohemian than Cedar Waxwings.  I’ll be ready with my camera when they return.

Last year when there was an irruption of Bohemian Waxwings they were here for several days.

Watch your fruit-bearing trees!
