We had an interesting experience on our noontime walk today.  A lone 
Am Robin was perched in a crabapple tree, clucking furiously at a 
mass of about 250 Bohemian Waxwings near the Ray School in Hanover. 
Every time a waxwing would make a move towards the tree, the rhetoric 
would go up a notch and the robin would give chase.  We watched this 
for about 10 minutes, with the robin maintaining possession of the 
arboreal buffet for the duration.
