Lots of Waxwings
The first day of winter and fairly warm. You can't knock that in the north. I had a fun day following the flocks of Bohemian Waxwings around Whitehorse, trying for a decent photo or two. I really didn't have anything that was up to par in my file.
The birds were quite co-operative but it was almost noon before there was any good light.
Right in the middle of one flock was a bird I did't recognize. From my bird book, it looks like a Townsend's Solitaire. It is listed as "uncommon" and did seem to be enjoying the winter weather.
