Это waxwing
Jun. 7th, 2008 03:58 pmBombycilla cedrorum, или, как говорят, свиристель.

According to experts on the writing of Vladimir Nabokov, this species almost certainly inspired the waxwing mentioned prominently in his novel Pale Fire.
I was the shadow of the waxwing slain
By the false azure in the windowpane;
I was the smudge of ashen fluff--and I
Lived on, flew on, in the reflected sky.
Я тень, я свиристель, убитый влет
Подложной синью, взятой в переплет
Окна; комочек пепла, легкий прах,
Порхнувший в отраженных небесах.
