~~~Last of the Waxwing Photos~~~


A few weeks back for "Wild Bird Wednesday" I posted some of the photos I shot of the Bohemian Waxwings !!   Well I told you I had taken a lot of photos that day.....I have sorted them out, and have the last of the keepable ones today for WBW!!





It was a windy bad hair day for the  usually 
sleek smooth feathered beauty!

A cold wind it was thus the puffed up look, and a bad hair day!!   ; )













Blending in very well in this apple tree !
From a distance very hard to spot!!

  8. I've been getting that puffed up look too, mainly because of all the layers of clothes I have on. Sue tells me I also have a permanent bad hair day. What is it with you girls? Give a man a break. Have you seen my Wheatears by the way? Sleek, shiny and smart - remind you of anyone?

  24. I can't get enough Waxwing photos, Grace, thanks for sharing!

    And thanks for commenting over at B'side. The snow is long gone (at least until this weekend); the swan pic was a few weeks old.
