Cedar Waxwing
These are Cedar Waxwings (undertail coverts, etc.) but I wanted to note that these are not necessarily male & female but rather adult & juvenile.

The plant is some kind of Mountain Ash (Sorbus,) and that adult looks like its about to pluck one of those berries and maybe feed it to its expectant-looking young.

Changed Taxon
Media was moved from Bombycillidae. Also updated tags to adult, juvenile.
