20120613 169 SERIES - Cedar Waxwings.jpg

Ottawa

Two images of an adult and juvenile Cedar Waxwing.

Top image: About six Cedar Waxwings landed in a tree close to where I was positioned. I previously stated that I thought that the two shown are an adult and juvenile; however, according to Chris, these are both adults engaged in a courting ritual - passing berries to one-another. Thanks Chris, for the help.

Two adult Waxwings after they first arrived/landed.
