Bohemian waxwing feasting on fruit

This is my acrylic painting of a Bohemian waxwing feasting on the fruit from a crabapple tree. They are found in the forests near lakes, streams and ponds in northern North America and Eurasia. Some feather tips have a red waxy appearance that give its English name. They can metabolize alcohol produced in fermenting fruit, but can still become intoxicated.
