Brown Thrashers, Willow Flycatchers, and Cedar Waxwings

Willow Flycatcher, Plum Island, Newburyport, MA

You've got to love the in-between periods, after the warblers and before full-on June child-rearing. Plum Island was stuffed yesterday with sneezy willow flycatchers, silent brown thrashers, and zzz-ing cedar waxwings.



I chased this Brown Thrasher up the Stage Island path.




And this was the only cedar waxwing who would comply with my photo wishes.
