Well, there I was on the phone at 3:30 this afternoon looking out my office window in Regent Administrative Center (my friends tell me don't call it "Hall") when I see a small flock of 12-15 birds fly like a flock of peeps past my office window. Waxwings! I see them drop down just past Cheyenne-Arapahoe (a.k.a. Chivington for those less sensitive, but hey, Cheyenne-Arapahoe covers two county lists, right?)
I had a meeting to get to, so I got off the phone and headed out. Sure enough, there were 12+ waxwings in a tree right at the northwest corner of C-A right across from Wardenburg, Imig and Farrand Field. Alas, all Cedar Waxwings. It was only 47 hours before that I heard a pod of waxwings head south from about this same spot and their seemingly low, hard trills had me call them Bohemians. Well call that off. I'm back to Cedar's now. Now, if only I had any waxwing on my Cheyenne or Arapahoe county list! By the way, Nick Moore, they headed off toward Baker to feed.
