We saw these Waneka Lake area Bohemian Waxwings at about 2:30 today at Caria Dr & Cypress Circle when a huge flock landed in some trees in front of us while we were driving to the main Waneka Park entrance. They stayed less than five minutes before taking off toward the south. FINALLY we had good views of BOWAs!
