The sparrow shot is not that good , but it is a first for me . I think the other is an immature cedar waxwing. Hope you enjoy.

I like them both, but that waxwing is really special.

Always nice to shoot a new bird and the White Throat is one of my favourite sparrows. Pretty good results for a first opportunity.

I like the bandit in the second shot. I have photographed juvie waxwings on 3 occasions in the past 4 weeks and none of those shots have light as nice as this. Pose, colors, details, berries all come together nicely.
