Jo, nope, no waxwings for me either. I've never seen one in Florida. Robins are hit or miss sightings here. 2 years ago they were everywhere. Last year I only saw a few and this year, so far, I haven't seen any.

Stu Yellams replied to Nancy Parr's discussion 'Bird Identification'
I'd say you got them all right. Nice bunch of birds.

Cedar Waxwing Communal Bathing?
This past weekend I had over a dozen cedar waxwings flock to my back yard. They perched in my pin oak tree, then one by one flew down to my bird bath. They didn't get to stay long, for a robin fought them off. I have never seen other birds…
