Yaupon Holly (Ilex vomitoria)Observer
featherenthusiastDescription
Can these be identified? Two cedar waxwings (see my previous observations) died at this bridge presumably due to window collision after eating these, and yellow-rumped warblers frequent the tree. Initial ID is purely a guess.

Cedar Waxwing (Bombycilla cedrorum)Observer
featherenthusiastDescription
Second of two individuals dead at ISYE south bridge this afternoon. I got there just as other students were moving them off the path. It looks like they may have been feeding on the berries directly adjacent to the glass bridge
Young-of-the-year, no wax tips. Well-developed yellow spots on tail. Red stains on beak.

Eastern Gray Squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis)Observer
featherenthusiastDescription
Red squirrel morph? This individual had particularly rufous coloration on the tail and back. We have had leucistic squirrels on campus within the last couple years so perhaps this is from their influence. Compare with normal squirrel in last pic.

Pretty beat up (probably weedwhacked) but still diagnostic for Blue Jay (black stripes, white tips)
There appears to be a secondary with a white trailing edge.
