Bohemian Waxwings, Coyote and Osprey April 22, 2011

Carol and I went for a drive around the area. We were thrilled as we hit the backroad to see the trees filled with bohemian waxwings. The sound was incredible. Shortly after we saw a couple of pairs of osprey - the female was already on the nest. Male was buzzing around the area. Finally a coyote which thrilled Carol (her first sighting of a coyote). Coyote found a vole/mouse on the hill and ate it up then charged down the hill and away from sight.

Hundreds of Bohemian Waxwings



Osprey just outside Toronto



The osprey was sharing the box with this pair of mating birds.
