Well I'm very pleased with these shots....I was doing my usual walk through you guessed it UVIC's lovely running trail when I look up and to my surprise there was a tree full of Cedar waxwings. Even though I had already taken pictures of them at Swan Lake. These ones where closer to me and so I started snapping. In these shot unlike the last the details are more striking I think and you can really appreciate the beauty with these birds. I just love the warm colorings....they are a absolute stunning bird and definitely needed another posting on the blog.

Cedar Waxwing 1 of 4
Goodmorning, Goodmorning....well yesterday here in Victoria BC was fab!! We got up to a warm 25 nice. So because I burn I decided to get out early, not as early as I would have liked but early enough that the morning sun was still ok and not the Mid day light that you can't get a decent shot in if you tried. My boys and I decided to head out to Swan Lake our Nature sanctuary. Well it was great I saw my very first Cedar Waxwings!! there was about five in the old oak tree which looks out onto the pond....Fantastic moment. Again I was excited but this time I didn't have to dump alot of pictures. Mind you thought my poor camera as you can see here was pushed and I say pushed to the max.....Ah again the reminder that I don't own an SLR...but I'm still happy with the results even though you can't really see alot of detail only their beautiful silhouette of colors against the blue blue sky.
