Local Notes
- Glacier Bay/Bohemian Waxwing: Bohemian Waxwings feed on berries that persist in colder months. (edit)
- Haines/Bohemian Waxwing: (edit)
- Juneau/Bohemian Waxwing: (edit)
- Ketchikan/Bohemian Waxwing: (edit)
- Sitka/Bohemian Waxwing: Rare in late Fall and Winter. Variable in abundance, they usually show up during cold weather and feed on European Mountain Ash (Sorbus aucuparia) fruit. There are some summer or early fall reports, though Cedar Waxwings would be the expected species in those seasons (and given the lack of historical reports of that species, there could be an issue of mis-identification). (edit)
- Skagway/Bohemian Waxwing: At least one summer report [1] (edit)
- Yakutat/Bohemian Waxwing: (edit)
