    This Dark-eyed Junco seems to be smiling, and definitely has a gleam in his eye.

    The slate-colored version of this bird was one of the first I identified as a youth on the east coast. It was a pleasant surprise to learn these are the same species across the continent. I always enjoyed their quick flicks of the tail and wing while hopping about.

    Another Junco In The Snow

    I try to keep iso on my Nikon B700 superzoom camera as low as possible most times, anything above iso400 is usually a mess. But this day I wanted to try to "freeze" the snowflakes so I went higher. It's pretty noisy but I still like how it turned out.

    Having quite a bit of snow and cold today. Doean't bother these birds much. They come by their nickname, "Snow Birds" honestly.

    Juncos (finally) arrive in Connecticut.

    We may not have a single flake on the ground yet, but Nutmeggers know that winter's officially here when the juncos arrive. They began showing up last week to feast on the winter-blooming berry bushes in the wildlife preserve.

    Dark-eyed Junco

    Formerly split under the name "Slate-colored Junco" this nominate subspecies is an uncommon migrant and winter visitor to California. It differs from the expected "Oregon Junco" in lacking a defined dark hood and in lacking brown on its flanks. This one shows some brownish on its back...

    It's still around.

    Dark Eyed Junco

    This one is hanging around, while the rest of his kin have migrated to wherever Juncos go in the spring/summer. It's recognizable because of the small white patched around its face.

    Dark Eyed Junco

    In the winter it's not unusual to see dozens in my yard. As the weather slowly warms toward spring, they head off to wherever they go in the summer. Now there's only a few left, and those will soon be gone until next fall.

    During a recent storm a good sized branch fell onto my deck from an oak beside it. I was cleaning up and I just leaned the branch on the handrail and after a time went in for lunch. I soon noticed the birds were constantly checking out the branch to see if any goodies were on it, this junco...

    These birds are usually pretty shy, they will scatter at the sight of me. But we have been having lousy weather, and they want some food, so they will approach surprisingly close when I am putting stuff out.

    Dark-eyed Junco Also considered as New World sparrows. Adults generally have gray heads, necks, and breasts, gray or brown backs and wings, and a white belly, but show a confusing amount of variation in plumage details

    Dark-eyed Junco — This is one of a pair of pictures of the same bird. This one highlights the raindrops on its back. There are feed seeds on a glass-top patio table during a rare rainfall. NX Studio for sharpening and to reduce brightness of the table top.
