berry breakfast
Cedar Waxwings are very interesting birds with a voracious appetite for fruit, in this case holly berries. I watched and photographed as a flock of waxwings would swarm all over a holly tree picking and eating whole about three berries each. Then just as quickly the flock would disappear no doubt to digest the big red berries. In about a half hour they would swarm back and do it all again. By the end of the day the holly tree was picked clean.

Dear Kevin,
We were going for a walk in Lewes this past weekend and saw you photographing the birds in the Holly tree. We didn’t know anything about your work until we saw the owners of the house with the tree at the local coffee shop. They explained who you were and told us about your website. We just got the opportunity to look at your site and are just amazed with your work.
We are most happy that, when walking by and seeing you taking the pictures, we didn’t scare the birds away. Next time we’ll try and keep our distance.
We will be checking back often to see your updated photographs.
Thank you,
Randy & Holly
