Re: Fw: Keep an eye out for waxwings with orange not yellow tail tips



Yes, on 17 Nov 1991 I saw one individual Cedar Waxwing in a flock at
Mason Farm whose tail tip was red instead of yellow.  I posted about it
on BIRDCHAT and got back some responses that it's fairly common.  But I
haven't noticed another one since.  Unfortunately I seem not to have
saved the responses, but I think some people claimed that there is
evidence of a dietary effect.
