A very distinctive looking bird perched on the pokeweed long enough for me to memorize its description. Then I went to look it up. It fit the description of a cedar waxwing *perfectly* except its tail feathers were tipped with a ruddy orange, rather than a vivid yellow.

Crap. It took me awhile, but I learned that it *IS* a cedar waxwing, and its feathers are orange b/c it has been eating non-native (alien) honeysuckle.

WOOHOO!

we done got ourselves birds who been eatin' alien plants! yeeehah!

Oh, the nuthatches finally made an appearance. They like the suet feeder. YAY!
