Cedar Waxwings at Falls Lake, NC



Birders,

Just a quick note to report seeing a flock of 5 Cedar Waxwings from the
Hickory Hill boat ramp at Falls Lake (Durham Co., NC) yesterday (22 June
03) while on a family canoe outing!  Waxwings are fairly rare breeders
in this area.

Also enjoyed a couple calling Ospreys and was even entertained by a drake
Mallard that seemed "wild" hanging out in a cove of a sheltered remote
peninsula.

Good birding,

Jeff
