Grey on Grey (Junco hyemalis)

I took this during the snow storm on Sunday and liked the monochromatic feel of this image. The quiet greys of the Junco and the background with the blur of the falling snow brings back the feeling of sitting outside in the hush of the snowfall. The only sounds were a gentle hiss of the snow coming down, an occasional 'plumf' when a large patch of snow would fall off a tree limb from above and the voices of all the birds having a feed on the sunflower hearts.
