Late winter blooms and birds

It's still winter by the calendar, but we will have a succession of blooms from here on through spring.  My daffodils showed their first blooms Friday.  The little red maple in the front yard is full of blooms.  It has attracted the birds.  I saw a cedar waxwing in it as well as some yellow-rumped warblers.  The waxwing might have been drinking sap, and the warblers were flitting about for insects.  The warblers are in their subdued winter plumage.  Here is one near the treetop.

 

Here are the first daffodils.
