A male Carduelis Flammea, to be specific. I have to say that I miss the Bombycilla garrulus (Bohemian Waxwing) that Edmonton has at this time of year.

That bird looks like a Tit!

EDIT:
It realy doesn't.
I just wanted to say that.

But we do have them here in Alberta.

Anyone have a pair of tits nesting in their yard?
