About this episode

This episode explores the significance of Bohemian and Cedar Waxwings in Alberta's seasonal landscape.

The great looks of Bohemian and Cedar Waxwings pair the French dynasty pompadour with the eye make-up of an Egyptian princess - but for Alberta birders, waxwings are so much more than just great looks. Cedar Waxwings are the iconic bird of our summer months while Bohemian Waxwings are the icon of winter. Both are THE calendar birds of of the province that provide a innate connection to our parks, gardens, yards and forested areas. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
