Cedar waxwings are special. Cedar waxwings could have been designed by a Renaissance painter. Cedar waxwings are one of the most sociable species on the planet. Bohemian waxwings are slightly larger and grayer than cedar waxwings. They nest farther north. Cedar and Bohemian waxwings will likely invade this winter, and they don’t mind sharing each other’s company. Some flocks of cedar waxwings are already here. ~ Bob Duchesne
