These birds arrived recently and have been visiting my fountain up to four at a time. Yesterday there was a wave of these birds (See video) descending upon the fountain. They are shaped like robins but somewhat smaller, with no red breast visible. They have two small white bars on their backs just above the tail. Are these robins? Their sudden appearance in such great numbers was truly extraordinary.

Editor's note: the birds in the video do not appear to be robins, but perhaps Cedar Waxwings (note light color edge to their tail).
