. The birds of California : a complete, scientific and popular account of the 580 species and subspecies of birds found in the state. Birds; Birds. The Cedar Waxwing North Carolina. Winters irregularly from about 49th Parallel south to Cuba and Panama. Distribution in California.—Fairly common but erratic winter visitor, lo- cally abundant in Upper and Lower Sonoran zones, chiefly west of the Sierras. Three known occurrences east of the Sierras and desert divides: Lone Pine (A. K. Fisher); Victorville (Mailliard & Grinnell); and Palm Springs, Jan. 29, 1913 (Author). Also recorded casually from some of the islands: San Clemente (Grinnell); Santa Cruz, April 11, 1915 (Author); Farallons, May 30, 1911 (Author). The migrations are desultory and the species lingers into May or even June; but the only established breed- ing point for the species in California is Eureka, Humboldt County.

The passerby pauses to see what the commotion may be, and finds the tree. Taken in Claremont CEDAR AND BOHEMIAN WAXWINGS IN WINTER Photo by Wright M. Pierce 551.
