I've seen them in the yard a few times since last year, and I have to wonder if they might not be nesting here. That would be thrilling to me. If not yet, once I have more fruiting shrubs and trees, I expect they might. :)
Recreating a native habitat has been a dream of mine since I was about 18. It only took me 20 years, but I finally have two acres of land in the country with which to work (and play). My goal is to document the improvements I make to the property: restoring habitat & attracting birds and butterflies in addition to other wildlife.
Just the back yard!? Nah, I want the front and side yards landscaped in natives too.

Waxwings like our neighbors' serviceberry, but don't seem interested in ours yet I keep hoping.
Are your serviceberries producing fruit yet? If so, I can't imagine why they haven't discovered your yet!
Keep hoping, it can't be much longer. :)
Maybe that is what they are feeding on now here, but the raspberries are just starting to ripen, and the blueberries are just behind them...so, here's hoping that they stick around.
