Cedar waxwing

Bombycilla cedrorum

Description:

The cedar waxwing eats berries and sugary fruit year-round, including juniper berries and ivy berries, with insects becoming an important part of the diet in the breeding season. I often see them on my privet tree but this is the first time one has come to the feeder. I don't think it took any seeds, however.

Habitat:

my yard

Trying to be cool with the sunglasses (pic #2). Love the yellow tip on its tail (pic #3)!
