Siblings (Cedar Waxwings).

This damp, gray morning, I didn’t expect to grab any interesting bird photos to speak of. But that was before I heard the hig-pitched squee! of a pack of waxwings, peered into some greenery, and saw three fledglings sitting close together on a little branch, all in a row.

Siblins.

Bird Report is a (sometimes intermittent) record of the birds I encounter while hiking, see while driving, or spy outside my window. —Brian Willson
