Waxwings description
The waxwings are passerine birds classified in the genus Bombycilla. They are brown and pale grey with silky plumage, a black and white eyestripe, a crest, a square-cut tail and pointed wings.

They often nest near water, the female building a loose nest at the fork of a branch, well away from the trunk of the tree. She also incubates
