Bon Bon Pond received a rare
treat this weekend when a flock of around 20 “masked bandits” stopped in to
dine on the cedars along the driveway. One
of my favorite avians, Cedar Waxwings are a joy to behold with their sleek physiques, distinctive face masks, yellow tail tips and, in adulthood, red wing tips. 
Smaller groups fly in from
time to time but this was the largest flock to date. No doubt these “Batman birds” were drawn in
by this year’s bumper crop of blue berry-like cones.
Cold Weather Birding Tip: Waxwings adore water so if you hope to see
some this winter put out a heated bird bath.
you are so LUCKY!! I love those birds and i have never seen one "in real life" before
