Well, I was excited about the mockingbird photos I took today until I saw your beautiful Cedar Waxwing. This is a stunning photo. Focus, exposure, colors, and DOF... all OUTSTANDING. Oh yeah, and the composition, too.

When I was a child growing up in Mississippi, I always thought the Cedar Waxwings were the prettiest birds and I liked the way they flew in little flocks. And they loved the wild berries. #570893

Thank you for your comments.

Ken, cedar waxwings are one of my favorite birds. They have beautiful colors and markings. Best of all, they are not typically shy of the camera.
