What kind of bird is this one?

If you have one Cedar Waxwing, you have a whole bunch of 'em. Most likely there's a nice shrub or tree nearby, just loaded with juicy berries of some sort. These incredibly beautiful birds travel in fairly large flocks, and are extremely social. One of their most famous behaviors, and one that's delightful to watch, they line up on a branch, and pass berries down the line until finally one of them eats the berry. Sadly, they can quickly strip a tree of all it's fruit, and then they move along, so act quickly if you want to see that beauty again.
