Tree Swallows are streamlined small songbirds with long, pointed wings and a short, squared or slightly notched tail. Their bills are very short and flat. Foraging flocks are frequently seen over wetlands, water, and agricultural fields.
Barred Owls are large, stocky owls with rounded heads, no ear tufts, and medium length, rounded tails. They are mottled brown and white overall, with dark brown, almost black, eyes. Barred Owls roost quietly in forest trees during the day and at night they hunt small animals.
The Bohemian Waxwing is grayish brown overall with subtle peach blushing around its black mask. The wings have 2 distinctive white rectangular patches and red waxlike tips on the secondaries. The undertail is rusty and the tail is tipped in yellow. Bohemian Waxwings spend the nonbreeding season in open areas that have plentiful fruit, from city parks to forest patches near streams.
