Facts About Cedar Waxwing [Bombycilla cedrorum]
It is interesting to know that the name waxwing is not due to their slick appearance, but comes from the waxy red secretions found on the tips of the secondaries. The function of these tips is not yet known, but they may help to attract mates. Also, the Cedar Waxwing is one of the few North American birds which can survive for several months on fruit alone.

Digital Postcard Series: Imagine If You Can
digital postcard #0003
"The Chinese pianist Liu Chi Kung was imprisoned for seven years during the Cultural Revolution, during which time he had no access to a piano. When he returned to giving concerts again after he was released, his playing was better than ever. Asked how this was possible since he had not practice for seven years, he replied: I did practice, every day. I rehearsed every piece I had ever played, note by note, in my mind." ~ by Bernie Zilbergeld
This is something I actually believe in and I know it works. I have imagine doing my school work, studying for exam, practicing martial arts, and in cooking. I can cook up a meal in my head, and when it comes to actually cook, it is so so easy to do.

On the other hand, if you have not look at the picture very closely yet, then try to look again, you will be surprised what you will find in the nature's sculpture.
