Juncos have made their appearance in our back yard - right on schedule! These pretty little birds have dark gray to black feathers with a white breast, and dark black eyes. Always polite, and never ones to push other birds away from the seeds, these winter visitors are always welcome at our house!
The hummingbirds are no longer here. October 11 was the last time I saw one at the nectar, and that was later than I had ever before seen one stick around these parts! They are always such a magical and unreal bird to me.
So far I have not seen the cardinals flocking as they do when the temperatures dip and the snow flies. I'll never forget the time we saw 9 pairs all at once - what a glorious sight!
