Leucistic Waxeye

Postby tonytrilobite » Wed Aug 24, 2022 5:03 pm

We sighted an light orange Waxeye in our garden in Governors Bay. It came to our feeding table and sugar water feeder and I photographed it. Sighted Monday 22nd Aug. Not sighted since. It did not appear to be part of the flock of about 24 normal Waxeyes that frequent our garden. Tony
