Ottawa - Winter visitor, along with hundreds of others soon to depart for the northwest to breed. The birds only showed up in numbers in recent days with two areas having several thousand. This one has flown down to the water for a quick drink after eating buckthorn berries.

Sue Bishop: Lovely. I haven't seen one in years.
Brian Morin: We haven't had any locally for a few years so the large number drew my attention to the Ottawa area. Most will likely be gone in a few days.

Ingleside - I didn't have far to go for these birds which was nice for a change. This was my first good opportunity to work with the waxwings this winter.

Ingleside - I tried in vain all winter to track down these birds. Very few in our area but many to the north. I finally located a small flock in a crabapple tree. They were very cooperative and the light was excellent.
