Just need some help with this waxwings ID. Since it didn't turn around I was unable to get any other markings except that it didn't look like it had any other colour then gray from where I was sitting. I think it's a Bohemian but just wanted to make sure as this would be a first for me and would add a new bird to my yard list!   |

Sorry phoebe, but I think it's a cedar waxwing...the undertail coverts are white on this bird, whereas the bohemian waxwings have a rufous coloured undertail. Great shot though! Beautiful birds

Looks like a Cedar Waxwing, phoebe. skalyn makes a good point by mentioning the undertail colour.
Nicely framed photo, by the way. Willows are some of the best trees for birds. You sure have a birdy place. Glad to hear you are keeping a yard list!
