Here some more shots of the cedar waxwing. I was heading home because it started to rain and this beauty just landed on this perfect perch :)

Nice set. I don't see anything wrong with these photos, so you only get compliments (this time ;)) Wish these birds were around me. I've only seen them twice and never close enough for a photo.

Beautiful shots, Jo, you must be getting a rep with the Waxwings for them to pose like this for you :)

Excellent IQ in those elements Jo... the poses he gave you are grand to say the least... leafless is not always an option with waxwings ;)

I can never get enough of these beautiful birds, especially when the images are as great as these! The clean, grey background is just perfect here, isn't it? Wow again, Jo.

You don't see these guys very often with such a clean shot. Nice job of making the most of this opportunity. They look great.

Thanks Ian, I think the credit goes to the mate of this waxwing, it took time for him to find her :)

Everyone already said what I was thinking.
