Hi @ratel and thank you!! I don't think it is a molt and after reading up on it a little more then I'm leaning more towards it being a mite issue. I read it can be a problem in warmer months so hopefully when it gets cooler then her feathers will come back in. I can't be sure that it is the same girl but I think the light and weather conditions could be making her plumage appear different. I will have to look more closely at my other photos and make some more comparisons. I love your Waxwing photos that you posted! Such a beautiful bird! I've seen Waxwings only a few times here and it is always a thrill. Wishing you a lovely weekend! 💖
