It's time to slow down and admire some pretty things. Today: a dark-eyed junco on a fence

Thicket Sentinel

This dark-eyed junco (Junco hyemalis) gazes through a tangle of bare branches, its eyes steady and unblinking amid the winter lattice.

Dark-eyed junco (i.e. “snow bird”) taking flight from our apple tree.  (I wish we could see his eyes, but I love the sense of motion.)

Moment in the Grass

The Dark-eyed Juncos (Junco hyemalis) seem to favor the quiet shelter beneath and around my shed. A seed block hangs overhead from a nearby feeder, but this particular bird prefers the ground—where dry grass and scattered leaves offer cover and comfort. I do occasionally spot them perched on the feeders or tucked into the trees, but more often, they’re down low, foraging in the grass, content with the earth beneath their feet.

I saw some dark eyed juncos over the past few days around our yard in Rutherford, NJ. In our area we only see them in the winter. I like these little birds! They have a nice gray and white coloring. I like their attitude too. I see then in little groups, busily but playfully foraging. At least that's how it looks to me!
