Thanks for the explanation, Dave. I saw quite a few waxwings last year, as
did everybody else. I saw most of them in taller trees, but that's just
because that's where they were. :-) All of the trees near campus and around
town where I saw them last year have no fruit. One reason I paid some
at
Barry et al,
Bohemians seem like an every 3-5 year occurrence in Fort Collins, so definitely
not present every year. I suspect what brings them here has nothing to do with
the local berry crop. I suspect what causes them to linger for weeks or months
has EVERYTHING to do the local berry crop.
