Note the brilliant Yellow on the tip of their tails.I wish to thank Mary Beth http://www.pbase.com/miriameaglemon/profile for pointing out my erroneously calling this a Cedar Waxwing.
great shot - superb catch of a waxwing whatever the sub species - well done for catching it.

Hi, Rick! Actually, these are Bohemian Waxwings--there are birders who would kill for a view like this! :-) Bohemians are grayer and stockier overall than Cedars, have more yellow on the wing, and have chestnut under tail coverts. Great shots!
