Update (5:30): The Bohemian Waxwings are gone for now. A large flock (100+) of Bohemian Waxwings came over fairly high from the north (airport area), and then all the close-in birds started calling loudly and they all took off and joined the large flock heading south. All except for 1 bird that is, who stayed on the top of a tree above the Wilson Trail calling and calling -- eventually after 10 minutes or so, it flew off to the south as well.
This is an insane number of Bohemian Waxwings for our area, so hopefully they will stick around for everyone to see.
