Captured at Mississippi River Community Park in Anoka Co., central Minnesota.
Bio: The Cedar Waxwing is a member of the family Bombycillidae or waxwing family of passerine birds. It is medium-sized, mostly brown, gray, and yellow. Some of the wing feathers have red tips, the resemblance of which to sealing wax gives these birds their common name. It is one of the few North American birds that specializes in eating fruit. It can survive on fruit alone for several months. ~ Wikipedia
