Sunrise today was 9:40AM, sunset 3:54 PM, for 6 hours 14 minutes of daylight, a loss of 4 minutes from yesterday. The sun is low on the southern horizon at mid-day, add in a heavy overcast, not a decent day for photography. However, I did take the camera along when I ran a few errands. Thanks to the flicked finger of fate, I encounter a large flock (200+) of Waxwings. They were feeding on the Mountain Ash berries on the public library lawn. There are about two dozen small trees, 12 to 15 feet tall.
