I just happened to glance out my home office window and saw a flock of small birds flying over our yard. Curious, I grabbed my binoculars and was surprised to see 25-30 Cedar Waxwings! They circled around, landing in a neighbor’s tree about 50 yards away. A bit far for decent pictures but I snapped a few record shots anyway:

It’s a pretty decent yard-bird for West Los Angeles, I’d say.
