Waxwings

Saw a small flock of waxwings eating berries in a bush when I was walking across the university campus. I love their coloring - the black bandit mask and bright yellow trim on the tail. I thought they were Cedar Waxwings, but we're more in the range of the Bohemian Waxwings.


Not my photo, didn't have a camera handy :-(

  1. Did they have a rusty rump? That's a clue that they are Bohemians.

  2. I didn't look them up till the next day and now my memory is hazy.
