Cedar Waxwing

Central Park, NYC

Bombycilla cedrorum

Cedar Waxwings normally travel in flocks and can be seen eating berries. Some birds in the NE United States and SE Canada show an orange tail tip instead of yellow. This is caused by eating the berries of an introduced honeysuckle while their tail feathers were growing.
