Thanks for your response, Pam! Hinesburg is a good place for waxwings and grosbeaks as there are several places in the heart of the village with several crab apple trees along the roads and around the school.
Just to clarify, I am interested in knowing where the trees with fruit are specifically in Middlebury since my friend will be there (and we have limited time). And since waxwings are unpredictable wanderers, chasing them to a specific spot where they have been reported in the past may be futile (but we will check out those spots pinpointed on eBird). My plan is to check out areas all around town that have trees with fruit regardless of whether or not the waxwings have been there yet! For example, any places where a row of crab apple trees may be planted.
Thanks again to anyone who knows Middlebury downtown well and can suggest good places for us to walk and listen!

Hi Ali, Joy Trigg posted a photo of a flock of 40-50 Bohemians in Hinesburg on the VT Birding FB page :-) Pam

Hello fellow birders!
On Wednesday, a friend of mine who is hoping to see Bohemians , will be in Middlebury on business, visiting from NYC. I see there have been recent sightings in the village area, and would love any tips on where there might be trees still bearing fruit!
If you can give us some leads, it would be greatly appreciated!
