Description
These waxwings are so active, it can be a challenge to focus on one of them at a time. I am always up for a challenge, and it's worth it to wait them out. This one moved in pretty close to where I was sitting, as soon as I turned my camera onto it, it decided to fly off, but I was able to snap this photo of it in flight, showing it's beautiful colours.
