Cedar Waxwing Silhouette — Photo-Artistry by kenne

Spiritualists believe waxwings to be a symbol of selfless generosity.
The symbolism of the waxwing totem is believed to teach selflessness
and the practice of giving to others for their benefit, and not your own. 
Waxwings are traditionally associated with the politeness you should have
when you give away to others the thing you have craved for or cherished for so long.

— James Common

  1. Cedar Waxwing, Bombycilla cedrorum! Gorgeous photo as always, kenne! Thank you!
    (Cedar, not Cider)
    The words from James Common are new to me but agreeable! Very good teaching ‘symbol’: “Selfless Generosity”.
    “The practice of giving to others for their benefit, and not your own”! Great philosophy!
    Is that the reason why you have a good feeling whenever you give someone a gift?
