If you wander by Hammonasset Beach State Park, what those cedar waxwings - they'll call the cops on you!

Thank you! I usually can never get near them, but blackbirds were distracting them.
I have lots and lots of cedar waxwing photos….but I don’t have one as good as your “portrait” shot.

I’m quite jealous! :oops:

Thank you! I got him on the ground too, which really surprised me, but it was dusk and that one needs some work.
 
Well, the one you posted looks pretty clean. If it was mine I think I’d crop it to portrait, which would also remove the slightly distracting out of focus branches on the right, and I’d probably sharpen it a little. Then I’d get it printed and frame it. (y)

The second one is indeed terrific. How about getting rid of the lower twig?
