Monday morning, I took out the garbage. It is a nice view.
I was greeted by a squadron of Cedar Waxwings.
This is what they love: the serviceberries.
Sound up for their chatter.
On my way to check for storm damage, our doe.
I hadn't seen The Freds since July 5th. This was my opportunity. July 6th I stained the middle deck. All went well. I didn't see any of them until July 7th.
They have dispersed somewhat. They are solitary critters.
I think I spotted Auntie Fred July 5th! I imagine them all out there digging burrows.
Caitlin is on her way home. The choir trip is over. She boarded in Zurich Wednesday morning our time, headed for Montreal. That's 8 hours! Then another flight to Ottawa.
It was a wonderful trip, from all I have seen.
This is a video of their last concert! They performed with The Garfunkels at the Church of St. Catherine in Vilnius, Lithuania.
The best part was when the Canadian Ambassador to Lithuania announced herself as an alto with The Garfunkels! She later said that many diplomats end up joining choirs in Europe as it is a great way to make friends. Music really does bring people together!

Love, love, love cedar waxwings. We don't have them here in South Dakota. At least where we are. I would see them occasionally in Wisconsin but usually only in the fall.

Don't they look wonderful in their choir costume? I see Caitlin, just off centre right. That's a large group to go touring with! Well done them. And well done you getting the decking done! YAM xx
That cedar waxwing is glorious! I'm reading a book about the Serviceberry now.
I hope that the Freds stay in contact a bit.
Your Muskoka Room is so nice, is that like a screened in porch? Cinnamon has a spot there, I see hahaha. The cedar waxwings are beautiful, we don't have them here.
What a treat to have the waxwings visit.
Yay you for getting the deck stained. Looks good, as do all the critters (except tick maybe)
That's a handsome birdie! Ticks are supposed to be more prolific everywhere this year. Linda in Kansas
Feathered choir and rehearsed choir. Fun.
They make band tour interesting by including many things to see.
Hello,
I love the Cedar Waxwings, great photos.
Take care, have a great day!
The cedar waxwings are lovely. There are NO elms in Kansas because of the Dutch Elm Disease.
Looks like Caitlin had a great trip and they all looked good in their outfits.
