3/25/10 Potsdam (St. Lawrence Co.)
Fifty-seven Bohemian Waxwings are perched in a tree behind our home in Potsdam this morning! Other than finding a few mixed in with Cedar Waxwings on Jan. 1st, this is the only observation I've had this year. They appear to be feeding in the buckthorn vegetation. The sun is shining and I had lovely views through our scope - beautiful birds. I posted this to Northern NY Birds last night: A Wilson's Snipe was winnowing behind our house yesterday evening (3/24/10) - the earliest arrival date I've noted in the North Country.
