This Junco didn’t seem to mind having a snowflake resting under it’s eye. I love these little birds and I only get to see them in the fall and winter.
Huge numbers of these birds migrate south to the United States in the winter from Canada and Alaska.
A lot of you know that the folks that flock to Florida in the winter are also called snowbirds!
That snowflake looks like an earring!

What a cute little snowbird he is. He looks much cuter than the snowbirds who flock down here during the winter. 😅

LOL! The dogs they bring with them are very often cutie-pies…so that makes up for their owners.

Ik vraag me af of ze het gevoel hebben dat de menselijke sneeuwvogels doen als ze de warmte van Florida bereiken? Tijd om shorts en slippers aan te trekken!

That snowflake in its cheek is beautiful, a real star. A lovely bird.

I was really hoping that the bird would stay long enough for some snowflakes to fall on it, I was lucky.

We have a lot of these juncos here. For sure I’ve heard of the people who are snowbirds, but I’ve never heard of juncos being called snowbirds. So I’ve learned something new. Nice closeup of this one. Your camera must be amazing. The photographer too, of course!

I didn’t know that they were nicknamed that either! I have a camera that I absolutely love, a Nikon D500.

Mine is just a little Coolpix P510, but it does a lot for a camera of its level. Someday, I’d like to get a bigger (more powerful) one.

Those cameras do a super job!
