Bohemian Waxwing # 20 50 Birds in 50 days for $50. Each | Barbara Haviland - Blog
This lovely bird was so pretty in the bird books that I thought he would be a great bird for my series
Title  Bohemian Waxwing
Medium oils on canvas panel
Size  7"x5"
signed and framed
It is larger, fatter and greyer than the Cedar Waxwing and has bright yellow, black or rusty orange color on its tail feather tips and a yellow, white, red or black stripe along the wing feathers. Under tail coverts are a deep rust color. Both beak and feet are dark and the brown eyes are set in a narrow black mask underlined with white.
The call is a pleasant ringing sound, similar to that of the Cedar Waxwing but lower-pitched.
