--0-2111907796-1155243992=:87898 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Oops ! Sorry Jim if I led you to believe that I saw waxwings seeking nectar. I was trying to describe the manner in which they were devouring the bugs and I was comparing their hovering and rapid wingbeating to that of the hummingbird when they are feeding.

They are flying up to houses and grabbing the bugs right off of the walls, windows, etc. They look like giant hummingbirds when they are doing this, hovering over insects instead of nectar. I have never seen waxwings in such numbers throughout the village acting in this manner. Laura Titus Brier Island --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Next-gen email?
