Sometime ago I happened to take pictures of an unidentified bird outside my house. I didn't think much of it. That is until I stumbled upon this blog post. I have photos of a very similar looking bird. They are very similar except the one near my house did not have the yellow and red on the wing tips.
Bill, I don't know where you live, that could make a difference. The Bohemian waxwings are common in Anchorage. If you're just looking at the photo, it's possible you got an angle where the wing color doesn't show. Perhaps yours is a cedar waxwing, which I've never seen live.
