A Waxwing At Last!


All I wanted for Christmas...was a Waxwing...but I was disappointed! Several times, during December, I spent time locally, following up reports of sightings of small flocks of these much sought after and charismatic birds. The last time there was an irruption of Bohemian Waxwings in the UK in the Winter of 2010/11 many, if not most, of my blogland birding friends were lucky enough to see them but sadly I missed out completely so when it became clear, late last year, that this was to be another 'Waxwing Winter' I was determined to make a concerted effort to try and find them.


Bohemian Waxwing

'But, oh! my spirit burned within, 
My heart beat full and fast!
He came not nigh—he went away— 
And then my joy was past.'
(Acton Bell)


Irruptions of birds occur when the food source in their own area is scarce. Waxwings feed primarily on berries and fruit and the crop there this year was poor. Consequently large numbers arrived in the UK (probably not as many as 2010/11) hoping to take advantage of the bounty here. Unfortunately though our own berry crop has also been poor this time and many of the larger flocks (their preferred way to travel around) of Waxwings have broken up and formed much smaller groups, flying further away from the east coast and across the country in search of dwindling supplies of berries. They will take insects on the wing if available but as I said their preference is berries, Rowan, Hawthorn, Pyracantha etc. They will also eat apples and since late Autumn I have been spearing them onto the branches of trees in my garden in the hope of attracting some but with no luck so far.



My quest to find them before Christmas was not to be. I always managed to just miss them. Most of these sightings were only a matter of four or five minutes' drive away so when, a couple of days before the recent snow arrived, I read more reports of a very small group being sighted in the same area, the hunt was on again. I was scanning the sides of the road for any likely trees or hedges but there really were very few berries to be seen. As we passed one tree I did a double take when I spotted a bird high in the branches but decided it was probably a Starling particularly as I was really looking for a small group of birds rather than just one.



 'Powerful was the beauty of these birds.
It boomed like a struck bell in the silence deep and hot.'
(Edna St. Vincent Millay)


Carrying on searching around the area produced nothing at all and as it was getting late and the light was starting to fail I decided to call it a day. Going back the way we had come I again spotted, high in a different tree, a Starling sized bird...with an unmistakeable crest!! I had found my first ever Waxwing :-) which I think probably was the same bird I had seen earlier. It may only have been one but how thrilled I was! I took a silly amount of photos knowing it was a difficult subject with it being late in the day and as usual not really close enough for my 50-250mm lens. After that I just enjoyed watching it for a while through the binoculars.



Bohemian Waxwings are so called due to their presumed origins from Bohemia and habit of travelling in nomadic flocks. Waxwing refers to the wax like tips on the ends of the secondary feathers which resemble drops of sealing wax. Males which show more red wax are preferred by females. As I have mentioned they normally travel together, usually in flocks of around 50-300 but sometimes in excess of 3,000! When feeding in flocks they will eat in shifts, one group at a time, so that all get their fair share. They really are fascinating birds. When courting, male and female can be seen passing berries back and forth, often for quite prolonged periods. This behaviour has also been observed in social situations where a berry is passed back and forth along a whole row of Waxwings and very unusually they even practise their sharing ritual before fledging! There are no records of them breeding in the UK. Some birds have been observed in this country as late as early May. Their lifespan is around 5 years but there are records of them living until the age of 12.



'Trilling Bohemian waxwings.
Enhancing the winter fragrance of
a crab apple tree of frozen fruit.
Trilling in a most joyous song of
Happiness.'
(Jim Smart)


The Latin name is Bombycilla Garrulus. Bombyx (silk) and cilla (tail) which refers to the bird's soft and silky plumage* and garrulus meaning noisy. Collective names for them are an 'earful' of Waxwings and a 'museum' of Waxwings. Old texts have described it as an 'un satiable' bird and a 'lazy and inert fellow whose only accomplishments are within the art of eating'! Given how far and wide they fly to search for food I don't agree with the view that it is 'lazy and inert'. However, it will eat its weight in food each day. Sometimes, when berries have fermented, this has unfortunate consequences causing them to fly in an unstable manner and making them vulnerable to predation and accident. The artist and naturalist John James Audubon would sometimes pick up drunken Waxwings from the ground to use in his illustrations.


*
 (John James Audubon's 'The Birds of America', 1827-1838.)


So, although I didn't get a Waxwing for Christmas I did get one for the new year. I would love to have seen more than one, to have been closer, for there not to have been twigs in the way and to have seen it earlier in the day when conditions were better but I did see one and that's what really matters :-)


Until the next time...enjoy the beauty of Nature, wherever you are.

* I am indebted to Marianne for the following extra information:

'The idea that 'cilla' means 'tail' comes from a misunderstanding of the scientific name of the wagtail genus, Motacilla. This means 'little mover' (the 'illa' part being a diminuitive), but was taken by some writers, undertandably enough, to mean 'moving tail'. As a result, 'cilla' has since been used to mean 'tail' in several scientific names, including Bombycilla, but really Bombycilla would mean 'little silky thing'.'

  4. I have still to see even one! How lucky you were, I should have been so happy to be there. You must be thrilled to have pictures of it.

    Have you seen the images that Matt Latham has added to his blog?

  5. Congratulations!!! I still have not seen one, apparently there was a small flock of Waxwings around here where I live but could not find them. Well done for capturing one:)

  6. Jemiołuszki są śliczne i u nas też fruwają. Niestety nie widziałam nawet jednego od dość dawna. Ciesz się więc, że zobaczyłaś tego jednego i do tego świetnie o nim napisałaś. Pozdrawiam cieplutko.
    Waxwings are beautiful and also fly with us. Unfortunately, I have not seen even one for a long time. Enjoy, then, that you saw this one and to that great about it wrote. Regards warm.

  11. I am as jealous as it is possible to be! I haven't seen a waxwing since I was 6.

    Our friends spotted them in our village in December and when I mentioned this to our builders, they told me that some birds they didn't recognise, had stripped our hawthorn earlier that week.

    I am so glad you finally saw one, but I am also as sick as a parrot!

  12. Excellent post Jan,
    With all my years of experience you have got one up one me. It is one of the few birds missing from my files. I learned more about the waxwing reading you post than I learned in a lifetime.
    Thankyou.

  13. Hi Jan - So pleased you finally managed to find a Waxwing - finding your own is something rather special :) I thought the photos you took were great and so lucky to get the blue skies.

    I had to smile at your descriptions of looking for them in December - it reminded me so much of all my fruitless quests for them :) So glad we have now both seen this species - any other sightings will be a real bonus :)

    Thanks so much for all the information on Waxwings - I learnt such a lot and loved the names for a group of them :)

    Another one of your wonderful posts Jan with lovely photos, great words and poems :)

  14. Well done Jan! They say good things come to those who wait! Lovely photos of a stunning bird! :)

  16. Congratulations on spotting them Jan. It's a bird I've never seen, and would love to before they head off again. Some great photos too, you really captured the colour of those birds. Its always so satisfying to see something just as you're about to give up searching for it. Seems to happen so often as well :)

  17. Brilliant Jan, just brilliant – I am delighted for you :-)

    Although I’ve seen good sized groups from my garden in distant mature trees I’d love to get close up photo opportunities and am quite envious of your wonderful photos (I’d take a silly amount too). They are bigger than you’d think aren’t they? I’m not surprised you never guessed you’d see a single one – easy done. My tip for seeing a group is to use your ears, if you’re in the car driving around have your windows down – the sound they make is great. I first heard them before I saw them as I walked around my garden trying to work out which direction the car alarm sound was coming from – there was a group of 40-50. I’ll never mistake that sound again and I hope you get to hear it too :-D

    Great post of background on this fascinating bird – I don’t think they are lazy either. Well done :-D

  18. Congrats on your Bohemian Waxwing sighting. They are beautiful birds. I have only seen the Cedar Waxwings here. Lovely post and photos. Have a happy day!

  19. Congrats Jan ... a fabulous post.

    I can remember my first sighting back in 2001 when we had 5 at Wisley and I watched one being ringed.

  23. ShySongbird ,
    Well done indeed .
    It must have been hard for you reading other blogs quoting large numbers of Waxwings seen , but your perserverence paid off in the end , and you were able to post your own bird , in your own inimitable way .
    Now you've broken your duck , I hope it will be several at least next time .

  24. Well what can one say Jan, congratulations, Brilliant, Wonderful, Super the list goes on, but nothing comes close to seeing your first Waxwing and I am delighted for you.
    We all have our bogie birds, mine is the Yellowhammer, yes I have seen them but I really want some photos of them, but they are a bit scarce down here.
    Anyway well done and superb images as well.

  26. Ragged Robin

    Hi Caroline :-) Thank you for your lovely comments. Yes, I was so pleased to finally see one, it had been a real game of cat and mouse for weeks! As you say, any more for us both, will be a bonus now...I would love some better photos though, I've always been envious of your header:-) So pleased you enjoyed the info, I do enjoy putting that together :-)

    John

    Thank you John, It certainly was worth the wait :-)

    Jenny

    Thank you Jenny, It definitely was a huge thrill! Your twig remark made me laugh :-) Photographing wildlife, birds especially must be the most frustrating hobby!

    Joe

    Thank you Joe :-) I was so disappointed not to see them in 2010/11 when everyone else seemed to so was so relieved to at least see one this time. I do hope you see them before too long also Yes, I have had some of my best sightings at the end of a walk...usually in bad light!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Congratulations!!! Your excitement is quite obvious in your writing. Isn't it thrilling to find the bird after waiting and waiting and waiting??:) I have yet to see this bird this year. I'm hoping February brings me lovely views as they seem to pass through our area at this time to eat the fruit off of our Palm Trees. However no Bohemian variety. Such beautifully masked birds. They are not lazy at all but they do get "drunk" quite often:)

  28. Great pics Jan and a beautifully described and informative post as always :-)

    I too spent many years being frustrated by this particular species so I can fully appreciate your happiness in finding one at last :-)

  29. Shirley

    Thank you very much Shirley :-) Yes, I was looking forward to hearing the twittering but it wasn't to be...maybe in the future. A group of 50-60 must have been wonderful even if distant. I hope you get some closer views eventually. Glad you enjoyed the info, it was fun researching it.

    eileeninmd

    Thank you Eileen :-) We don't see the Cedar Waxwings here. They are both beautiful birds. Wishing you a lovely weekend.

    Frank

    Thank you Frank :-) It must have been interesting to watch the ringing although I admit I am a little uncomfortable about catching and ringing...I do realise that a lot of valuable information has been gained in that way though.

    Thank you Greenie, Yes it was very frustrating not to see even one for so long, so I was thrilled with this sighting. Hopefully I may see more in the future. I would love to see them on berries, they always look so pretty like that.

    Monts

    Hi Monty, thank you so much for your lovely, very generous comments :-) I have been keeping my fingers crossed for a long time that you will get some really good views of Yellowhammers. I know you have been hoping too, maybe soon, I do hope so!

    Thank you Chris, Yes, it was exciting, I had waited a long time for that sighting :-) I assume then that it is the Cedar Waxwings you see there, they are lovely too but we don't see those here at all. I hope you do get to see them in February! I have seen 'drunken' bees before but never drunken birds so far ;-)

    Thank you very much for your kind words David :-) Frustration was definitely the word especially as so many other people seemed to be finding them so easily!

  36. Well done Jan, you've done it at last!...you've seen a real live Waxwing!...if it was anything like the first time I saw them you must have been held spellbound, I know I was...they're such beautiful and stunning birds to see. And you can't help but take loads of photographs!..there's something about them that just compels you to keep on clicking away!!

    Great shots and a super informative post...[;o)

    ps. sorry for the late comment, I've been a bit lethargic and off colour for the last couple of days..an approaching cold I think!

  37. Wow, Songbird, lovely photos, so pleased you found yourself a Waxwing :)

    Here's a little fact about the scientific name. The idea that 'cilla' means 'tail' comes from a misunderstanding of the scientific name of the wagtail genus, Motacilla. This means 'little mover' (the 'illa' part being a diminuitive), but was taken by some writers, undertandably enough, to mean 'moving tail'. As a result, 'cilla' has since been used to mean 'tail' in several scientific names, including Bombycilla, but really Bombycilla would mean 'little silky thing' :)

  47. Hi Jan,

    Congrats on the Waxwings! :)

    So far I haven't seen/heard any at all. Normally I would as Sheffield often gets them in fairly high numbers and previously I've heard them in the area flying over quite a lot.
    Oh well, maybe another year.

    Thank you very much Sonjia :-) It was lovely to see one at last. I wish I could have managed better photos but it was determined to stay by that twig. Maybe that wasn't such a bad thing though as if it had moved it might have flown even further from the camera! So glad you liked the inclusion of the illustration, I was pleased to find that.

  59. I'm glad you got your New Year's wish! Your photos are beautiful, and I enjoyed all the interesting tidbits of information about this bird. Waxwings are common in many parts of the U.S., but I've never seen one here either. We have had a new--to me--bird visiting us, though--a pair of tufted titmice have been frequent visitors.

    Thanks for including the Audubon illustration; I had forgotten how amazing his drawings are!

  69. Look at the way my pal Wesley Virgin's autobiography begins in this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL VIDEO.

    As a matter of fact, Wesley was in the military-and shortly after leaving-he unveiled hidden, "mind control" secrets that the government and others used to obtain whatever they want.

    These are the exact same secrets tons of famous people (especially those who "come out of nowhere") and top business people used to become rich and famous.

    You probably know how you only use 10% of your brain.

    That's because most of your brain's power is UNTAPPED.

    Perhaps that thought has even taken place IN YOUR own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head seven years back, while driving an unlicensed, beat-up garbage bucket of a car without a license and with $3.20 on his debit card.

    "I'm so fed up with living payroll to payroll! When will I become successful?"

    You've taken part in those types of thoughts, ain't it so?

    Your success story is going to happen. Go and take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.

  70. My name is Mr TONY DWAYNE,my wife was having affair with a senior secretary in her office. I love this woman so much that i would not want to share her with any body. i told her to retire from the job and i would take care of all her needs but she would take it because she is been embraced by everybody in her office, this normally leads to quarrel every-time. i tried all i can to please her and she will promise to be good , some days later she will turn back to her normal way.
    i was nearly loosing out, i could not focus in my job, my whole life was full of sorrow and i was thinking i should kill the other man my self and put an end to all this until i saw a testimony from a blog on how IKHIDE could cast a love spell to bring lovers back no matter what is behind the disappointment. so i decided to write him via email:- dr.ikhide@gmail.com and now all my wishes are exactly as i wanted. She told me everything that has happened secretly in the past and i forgave her as DR IKHIDE instructed me to and she loves me and care for me as i ever wanted. i know there are many spells that do not work but i want to assure all you out there no matter what you have been trough to have faith and believe that this is the final solution to your problem.
    Even if my job is taking most of my time, the little free time i have , i will share the good news to everyone in the world because i know that with love brings happiness and hope for a long life.
