In the preface to Vol. I of his American Ornithology, Charlie Bonaparte thanks his colleagues for helping him make his English sound more natural and less "foreign." He nevertheless could write that all waxwings are "largely and pointedly crested." #WIthFriendsLikeThat
Day 21 Waxwings are associated with children's whistles and... behaving wierdly after eating overripe berries in winter.

I saw a pair of Cedar Waxwings in my backyard yesterday which I've never seen here before. They are lovely so I wanted to paint one to add to my chubby bird series.
Stopped in #Camden near a highway for some spontaneous birding. Boy was I not disappointed! Cedar Waxwings are so classy don’t need all the flashy colors to be drop dead gorgeous. #newjersey #birding #turkey #housefinch #cedarwaxwing #yellowwarbler #nj
@FolkloreThurs Good morning tweeters. In England, the Waxwing is known as The Bohemian Chatterer, in Ireland - "silk wing" or "fairy wing". It was believed that banshees used waxwings as torches to guide them through their nights of lonely laments...#FolkloreThursday #birds
A whole flock of waxwings was hanging out. Wonder if they were wintering here, or just passing through
