Saw my first one about 4 years ago, and have only seen them on two evenings a year, one in April and another in October, since that first sighting.

Always in the same tree.

I've read they migrate from Argentina to Canada.

Now if you can just spot a Rose-breasted Grosbeak . . .




I'm glad someone got the correct name on the first page!

that's really cool, I have been excited for all the hummingbirds I have gotten lately, and a nesting pair of blu jays that like to steal the cat's food.

man, I haven't seen a cedar waxwing since I was a kid....used to see some massive flocks of them at certain times of the year.


we used to slaughter hundreds every year, made a good dirty rice ....

they would fly into the bushes and get drunk off the berries, damn near catch them with your hands

whats a good type of feeder to get? I have cats outside and tons of squirrels, so preferably something that they wont mess with.

Are there different types of feeds that attract different birds?

I've got a large breasted blonde skank by my pool right now. It's fascinating to watch them in the wild.
