Waxwings got their name from the distinctive, waxy-looking red tips found on the secondary feathers of their wings. These colorful tips resemble drops of sealing wax, which is how the birds earned their moniker. The name reflects not only their appearance but also their striking beauty, making waxwings easily recognizable among other bird species.

What do Waxwings eat?
Cedar Waxwings eat some insects, but are primarily fruit eaters, a trait that dictates much of their behavior. They eat almost exclusively fruit in the winter, relying on the berries of mountain ash, juniper, dogwood, and others. They also forage on fruit crops in orchards, especially cherries. Waxwings are susceptible to alcohol intoxication, and even death, from eating fermented fruit. Like most songbirds, they feed insects to their young at first, but switch to feeding the young berries within a few days.
