At a puddle of water on the lane. Cedar Waxwings (Bombycilla cedrorum) and Robins (Turdus migratorius) are social birds, particularly in the winter and share the same taste in food, during the winter as well. Another thing they share is their affinity for birdbaths and puddles for drinking and bathing.

When I see a single bird in either of these species I am always on the alert that I will see many more of both species, flocking to a tree or bush for its berries.
