One Little Junco


junco

Just a little junco. Not unusual at all, except perhaps its behavior. It was totally unconcerned about how close we were. It was hopping along beside the trail, and we walked within six feet of it before it fluttered a bit farther away.

We should be home tomorrow, so perhaps I'll have a live post. We are doing this hike on a very tight schedule because I have to do the paper route beginning the very next morning. I'll pop in and say a quick hi, even if I can't manage a great post.

He may not be an unusual bird but he is very cute with that plump little body.

Juncos are one of my favorite birds ever since we encountered massive flocks of them scratching around the leaf litter at Shenandoah National Park.

This is one I've probably seen before, but I have yet to identify myself. It's another one that will stick in my mind now whenever I'm out looking.
