Boh Waxwing flashy colors 3333

Eastern Washington

Looking like a couple of fighter jets painted up for an airshow, these
Bohemian Waxwings were in a feeding frenzy over these berries. The
original image is sharper than this web copy, but the main idea I want
to share here is the colors. I did my best to obtain sharp focus, but
the birds were just too crazed and almost constantly moving...

I love this, it's as if the waxwings' colors were made to match the snow and berries around them. Excellent shot!
