Well because I had to go to work early yesterday....called in again to change my shift. I decided that after work I would challenge myself and hike up Mt. Doug. I had heard from some of the residence in the area that there is an Owl in there...so I thought I would try and see if I could find it. Well looks like I will have to do a few more trips into Mt Doug I had no idea that it was such a large area to explore. I did manage a decent shot of this lovely Dark-eyed Junco.....He was singing his head off wasn't too hard to find him.Thursday, May 14, 2009

I love Juncos! They are one of my favorite birds to have around in the winter. So lucky you are that you have them around right now - I miss ours! BTW, I like your new header image of the Boreal Chickadee. It's very striking
ReplyDeleteThank you Heather...we have Juncos around all year round...they love my feeders in the back yard. Victoria in a way is unique with our environment.Alot of birds that should migrate end up staying here year round.Oh and thanks for the compliment on the header it was time for a change...I had to stalk that chickadee to get that shot!! :)
ReplyDelete...our Dark-eyed Juncos have all returned up north to you! This is a beautiful junco...so different than ours.
