I agree that these two records are extremely early for Bohemian waxwings in
our areas, but I have the impression from somewhere that in recent years
very often they turn up much farther east in Newfoundland in early Winter
before they come here -- then, after they feast on and deplete the berries
of mountain-ash etc. on The Rock, they move west and south to the Maritimes
to find other sources of food, before their call in the Spring takes them
far to the west and north to nest.
Cheers from Jim in Wolfville

Last Saturday (October 28th), there was a dozen Bohemian Waxwings at
Schooner Pond on Cape Breton Island, seen by Dave McCorquodale and me, close
to as far east as these westerners could go. We, too, commented on the
earliness of such a sighting.
