Cedar waxwings sometimes come in swarms when the berries are ripe and absolutely get drunk on them..I have rescued them after they knock themselves out flying into the sliding door glass. They are lovely birds.

Oh gosh, that's exactly what my friend described them as doing. She said it's sad and funny at the same time. Some of berries ferment, I guess and they get tipsy!

Those cedar waxwings are strikingly beautiful birds. I love their coloring! I have never seen one around here. Like so many other interesting birds, they probably aren't native to this area.
