Florida Cedar Waxwing

Cedar Waxwing. Enchanted Forest Preserve, Titusville FL

I had only a few hours before a workshop at the Space Coast Birding and Wildlife Festival in January one morning, so I decided to visit Enchanted Forest Preserve, which 1) I had never been to, and 2) was only 7 miles from my hotel. Enchanted Forest is a chunk of mixed habitat along the abortive Addison canal, at the very south edge of Titusville. It was early, and it was unseasonably cold, so there not many birds were moving yet at the Enchanted Forest, but I got back to the parking area by the Visitor Center just in time to encounter a small flock of Cedar Waxwings moving through the trees and feeding on berries. Always a treat, no matter what state I am in.
