Seriously, thanks for your comments, everyone. I've never seen these birds before Saturday. At first, because of their crests, I thought they were female cardinals, but once I saw them in the viewfinder I knew they were something else. I'm generally happy with the results - only got a few shots before they flew off.

Re: PESO - Cedar Waxwings?
WOW! Magnificent shot, Frank. Composition and color tones spot on. To heck with the missing red spots. ;) I'll admit wanting to tone down the light a tad in the area between the birds and the right frame edge.

Re: PESO - Cedar Waxwings?
Here is a shot of a group of Robins and Cedar Waxwings that I shot several years ago in my backyard. This was my first time ever seeing a Waxwing. Numerous people have commented that seeing the two species together is very unusual. Why, I do not know. http://walthamler.smugmug.com/Portfolio/Some-Favorites/4592986_mrB5J#270846448_JQB9N-A-LB Walt On Sun, Jul 3, 2011 at 5:15 PM, frank theriault knarftheria...@gmail.com wrote: I ~think~ that's what these beautiful birds are - except that I don't see the red wingtips that Cedar Waxwings are supposed to have.

THe _Bohemian_ Waxwing has more pronounced markings on its wings - some little stripes and more evident red Aren't they wonderful birds? like the geometry though several crops come to mind that would work too. The greenery is a bit light , and especially so on the right foreground... I think you can play with this one a bit and make it extra special... The only time I had a truly great op to capture them up close was in NOva Scotia years ago where there were a gang of them in a berry bush of some sort. but it was much too dark and my film was slow. :-( They seem pretty tame when they are in a good feeding spot tho.

Re: PESO - Cedar Waxwings?
Walt - possibly not often seen together because of their preferred meals. Waxwings favor berries, robins favor worms... so they would be most often seen at different levels. Seeing them together is interesting especially to me because I didn't realize the waxwings were that much smaller than robins. Rather rude behaviour on the part of the center waxwing - well, or least it seems so. ann On 7/3/2011 18:54, Walter Hamler wrote: Here is a shot of a group of Robins and Cedar Waxwings that I shot several years ago in my backyard.
