Birds of a feather

This morning I happened to look out my window and it looked like someone was remaking the movie 'The Birds'. There was a swarm of birds in my front yard. When I say swarm I mean there were probably a good 30-50 birds zipping this way and that way across my front yard. They were coming to rest on a tree that borders my house with my neighbors that was exploding with berries. These birds were absolutely loving the berries, there were so many birds it gave the illusion that the tree was moving of its own volition. It almost seemed to be breathing because of the birds quick but delicate movements from branch to branch to grab at this tasty little berries. I managed to crack our front window and get my lens exposed long enough to catch some of these glorious birds, I believe they were Bohemian Waxwings. Enjoy!
