Wednesday, November 15, 2017 Cedar Waxwing and Robins

Seward, Alaska

The CEDAR WAXWING juvenile seems to really like the Mt Ash berries in the mid-400-block of Second Avenue. Birders have been very pleased to find it nabbing the tasty, frozen fruit and tossing it down in one gulp like the nearby dozen ROBINS.

PINE GROSBEAKS, in contrast, like to give each berry a workout, squeezing out the juice and discarding the pulp. This particular tree has a lot of berries remaining and so hopefully the little Waxwing will stick around.

Happy Birding!
