I have watched this tree bloom at Magee Marsh for years, during the Biggest Week in American Birding, and I always hoped to catch an interesting bird in it. This year I caught several. This is a Cedar Waxwing, and the bird was busy eating the petals of the flowers…a behavior I have never seen before, and something I did not know any bird did.
