Japanese Waxwing Breed Russia, NE China Migrate Japan, North Korea, South Korea, E China. Diet primarily berries and fleshy fruits Eats insects during breeding season Female incubates 14days, parents feed 18 days in the nest, and 10 more after juveniles migrate with the parents and a large flock

The "eating insects during breeding season" is also why our N American birds tend to ignore the feeders at certain times of year. They need the increased protein of insects to build healthy eggs and feed the nestlings. Birds are so cool. 💛
