And obviously I haven't figured out why when I post a picture it does that.

Anyway this little guy must have fallen out of its nest during the storms last night.

You can hear him calling back and forth to his relatives. Sounds almost like a cricket.

I think it is a juvenile Cedar Wax Wing.

Yep. The tail feathers are a dead giveaway.

Sweet. For years I have heard them calling back and forth in my yard and never knew what type of bird it was.

Strange though I never see the adults. Doesn't matter i guess if they like my trees for nesting and want to remain illusive that's fine. As long as they keep coming back to nest.

Thanks.

At first I thought the tail was sitting on a Dandelion, thanks for the info.
