[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The name "Bohemian" refers to the nomadic movements of winter flocks. It comes from the inhabitants of Bohemia, meaning those that live an unconventional lifestyle or like that of gypsies.
The Bohemian Waxwing does not hold breeding territories, probably because the fruits it eats are abundant, but available only for short periods. One consequence of this non-territorial lifestyle is that it has no true song. It does not need one to defend a territory.

Hola Paul,
sensacional trabajo,
bello pov,
delicioso retrato...
saludos

Beautiful shot with a great background to match. The only thing I don't like is the fact that the bird is right in the center. Other than that a great shot all around. Well taken.
