Cedar waxwings on the wing. Backlit closeup of a flock.

At the end of my walk I spotted this "murmuration" (which I guess is most appropriately used with starlings) of cedar waxwings. It was very cool watching them wheel about as a flock. Not as huge as a flock of starlings, but beautiful nevertheless. This was one of a "spray and pray" effort as this was unexpected. Looking at the shots, I might have done better backing off on the zoom. But I thought this was cool, even if it's not a "great photograph."
