Beautiful catch, Phil!

Beautiful, Phil. Nice detail. My only nit is the bright spot to her right really fights for my attention.

Nice capture, even getting the dark eye in the shadows. Yeah, there is a bright spot, but we take what we're given, eh?

Nice Phil real Nice .Excellent body pose.
Perhaps a slight sharpening would help some.
I have shot a few Junco's but I never have even seen a female .Wow!!!!
Is that a Gray slated junco?

Very nice, Phil. I like the winter feel to it and the natural catch light. I would consider a crop off the top to just above the branch coming in from the right. Nice catch - you've been very active this winter, capturing a lot of great images!

Nice shot, I like the framing of the junco in the trees.

According to my bird book it is a female Dark-eyed Junco. I much prefer taking photos of the female because of the colors.
