The Cedar Waxwing is a passerine bird that can be found year-round in my home state of Connecticut. The name "waxwing" comes from the waxy red secretions found on the tips of the secondaries of some birds. These birds are brown on top and pale yellow on its belly. It has a crest of feathers on its head and a black mask lined with white on its face. The cedar waxwing has black legs and feet and a short black bill. It has darker gray wings and its tail has a yellow tip.
If you want to attract Cedar Waxwings plant fruit-bearing shrubs and trees. Listen to their calls and be on the look-out for these gorgeous birds.
