In the picture above, an adult Cedar Waxwing (left) and a juvenile visit the bird bath. Notice the yellow fringe on the juvenile's tail. The adult appears alone in the photo below with its signature "bandit's mask".
Hummingbirds are already so small that it's hard to tell the juveniles from the adults. However, in the photo above the one on the left appears to be an adult while the one on the right is a juvenile. This has been a good year for the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds as we have seen a lot of juveniles.
The picture below shows a juvenile Ruby-throat liberally sprinkled with pollen, making the golden spots on its neck and wing.
A juvenile Eastern Wood-Peewee checks out the neighborhood. We don't see these very often.
Our thanks to Mick Hardy for the pictures on this page.
