I really enjoyed the quote by Nabokov since he was the reason I went looking for the article, but I am wondering what the range of waxwings is...and where I have to go to find one. Perhaps a map showing the range would help the article.Mrathel 14:07, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
I live in Arlington, MA and have seen a flock of Cedar Waxwings on three occasions during late March and early April 2008. It appears to be composed of about 25 individuals and I presume it is the same flock seen on separate occasions. It seem to me that some have brighter yellow underbellies than others and I assume that thes are the males. They appear to frequent arear where juniper berries remain from last season. They also frequent a playground area near my home. At the playground site they occupy territory claimed by mocking birds that continually attempt to drive them away.
