Date Seen:01-16-2007
Location:Austin Texas, 78746 (30.287739,-97.802200)
Description:Seen from my office window.Cedar WaxwingCedar Waxwing: They came, they ate, they conquered! These darn birds were so neat to see and so elegantly plumed for the first few days. Then, they were here by the hundreds -- flying in large flocks, eating all the berries of the trees, and leaving every car parked beneath a tree in dire need of a wash. Their high pitch sqeaking can be annoying even from inside. But, they are a beautiful bird. Just wishing ther weren't sooo many of them.
