This Bohemian Waxwing is, I guess, trying to decide which berry to pluck next.

I see beauty and elegance in this photograph. A superb composition, Cynthia.

Cindy, a beautiful, dynamic pose of this Bohemian Waxwing. I love the way its body is arched over toward the berries. Great job of acquiring a nice clean background – not always easy shooting into a tree full of berries. Well done!

I love these Waxwings. They get drunk if they eat too many berries that fermented. I have seen it.

Lovely composition with the pose of the waxwing complementing the diagonal of the branch beautifully, and the colour of the berries adds a nice bonus.
