Awoke to a light dusting of snow this morning here in Massachusetts and found this Junco staring at me from atop the rail on the back deck.
Thanks for looking.

Hi Charles. This one really shows the plight of birds when it snows, need to find some food right away!!! The direct look at the camera suggests he is sticking around even if a camera is pointed at him. Although it may not have been possible I think a slightly higher vantage point might show the lower part of the bird a little better.

I like this image. The Junco stands out nicely in the snot and the falling snow adds to the image with the flakes on his heaed and beak.

With the amount of Juncos at my feeder it is hard to make an interesting photo of one but you managed to do it. I like the snow falling and also like the direct vantage point because it is different. I would be proud to hang this on the wall.
