Lilacs & Tulip from My Daddy

I visited my parents yesterday afternoon, and my Dad brought in some lovely lilacs and two tulips for me and my mom. The lilacs smelled soo good. I think they are one of my favorite flowers for sure!

Cedar Waxwing Birds

I didn’t post this on the day it happened, since I downloaded and edited my photos only yesterday.

On 4/8 (Thursday), I pulled into the driveway and noticed a dozens of birds fluttering in and under the tree at the edge of our property. I didn’t pay it much mind, and went in the house, and a few minutes later, I brought the dogs into our fenced in yard.

I still could see and hear the fluttering birds over by the tree, and it intrigued me. I couldn’t tell what kind of birds they were. They were smaller than robins, and didn’t “hop” around like they do. They looked almost like a flock of sparrows, but their coloring didn’t look the same.

I had to find out, so I brought the dogs inside, and took out my camera and long 300mm lens. As soon as I got close enough, I peered in my lens and was SHOCKED to see that they were Cedar Waxwings. OMG, wow. I was thrilled. I haven’t personally seen a waxwing personally and to get photos was extremely exciting!

I just sat on the grass nearby thanking God over and over for such a wonderful gift!

Here is one of my favorite shots from the day:
