A grumpy looking group of birds you've got there Konrad. Nice pictures your wife took.

Wow, you and Joan are lucky to see large flocks of these birds! The Waxwings are so beautiful. It's funny that they are obviously very cooperative and group-oriented, and then they get a little grumpy with each other in a big puddle!

What beautiful photography. What camera are you using? Absolutely wonderful!!!!!

Beautiful.Love this bird

All great, but I particularly love the second shot of the two birds trash-talking in the puddle.

Didn't the same thing happen last year? You were off somewhere and your wife got to see and photograph the waxwing invasion. I could just imagine the announcement "Oh, by the way, Konrad, I saw a few nice birds today..."

Thanks,
Claire

Beautiful photos, yet, please do let us know what point and shoot camera your wife uses, it takes wonderful pictures!

Thank you all!
It's a canon powershot SX40 HS, has a amazing reach of 800mm. Also good for macro shots and general photography.
She got it for Christmas, I.M.O. best camera for the money.

Clair...You're right on with the wording on the second picture!
It's also my favored. Yes, last year she had a blast too.

Have a couple more..

Taking a moonshot with this camera,......expensive lens would be needed for a SLR Camera
