Photo by Linda Smith le ocean eats away at the snow- and ice-covered frozen .sand in early February large flocks of Robins and Cedar Waxwings were inging through Pine Knoll Shores. As the photo shows, the waxwings are incredibly beautiful and “precisely” colored birds. They eat the seeds of the cedar trees, so our town with its many cedar trees is a avored spot to feed. Based on a tip from bird lovers Donna and Dick ielanger that waxwings love a supply of fresh unfrozen water, simple lie plates of water were put out to attract these birds. The red on the wing tips is indeed a form of wax, so they are properly named! —Richard Seale Photo by Richard Seale This little fellow nsked life and limb to share the birdseed on Linda Smith s second story deck—and boldly posed for a picture!
