Description: Photo and biology of this species.
These warm-brown, crested birds (Bombycilla cedrorum) cannot be mistaken, especially when a flock is feeding on cherries or mulberries. Flocks of waxwings will descend on a bittersweet vine or pyracantha shrub in a large group, stripping the berries in minutes. If the berries have fermented, the birds can actually get drunk and will flop around until they get sober. But their digestive systems are amazing; the seeds of berries are eliminated within 45 minutes following ingestion.
