Subject: Cedar Waxwings - Hawking Behavior
I’ve had waxwings EVERY evening and on weekend mornings when I’m not working…..show me a hawking behavior.
I know they are typically berry and fruit eaters. and they don’t appear to be catching insects whilst in flight.
My guess is the males showing off for the females but it’s only a guess. And i’m not that smart.
Any of the smarter folks got an opinion on this? I realize it’s migration start up and this subject may be boring to most but i thought i would see if anyone else
notices this.

Come on warblers!
