1. Those are what we scientists, and I'll try to dumb this down for you lay people, call "perching".

Perching.

Say it after me - "perching".

There. I knew you could!

If they were in the air, then we scientists would call them "flying".

There - now you've learned something today!

6. That is a waxwing, no doubt about it.

During the spring they arrive here in flocks, stay for a few days and then move on.

2. Its a little hard to tell but do they have crests?

If they do I would say Cedar Waxwings....

5. Cedar waxwings.

We get them here too. Looks like they are looking for whatever fruit remains on that tree. They are gorgeous birds.
