    A stately looking Cedar Waxwing strikes just the right pose while on the hunt for insects. Although they're best known for being berry eaters they also consume a wide variety of insects but will also eat flowers, oozing tree sap and ants. They're very social birds who travel in flocks and needless to say are very photogenic.

    Gorgeous shot at the waxwing Heather. Very well done I love the perfect framing, the colors and the sharp focus on the bird ( but not the pesty Gena Henz machin chose ). Oups! Sory, my bad temper goes wild again

    Wow, beautiful image Heather. Vivid colours, and perfect focus on the proud waxwing, I love those birds. Nicely composed and captured.
