Dark-eyed Junco

[Nancy Bell]

Taken during a snowstorm through an open window. The perch is a large piece of dead juniper (abundant around here) that I have set up near my bird feeders. Generally it is difficult to photograph birds at this feeder since the light is usually all wrong so I have to wait for clouds, or big snowstorms !

Nancy i like this a lot like how you have the bird in focus and the perch in a bit large but my eyes get drawn to the birds eye with that yellow ring well done

[Doug West]

Well done Nancy. The exposure is dead on, you handled that great.

For me at least, it's nice to see one on a perch. I think all of my Junco's
are on the ground.

As sweet a shot as one could hope for Nancy, stunning detail and I do like the whiteout backdrop and his eye contact with the camera

It looks very well-fed and content! Nice image, and good to see one on a perch.

If it were mine I'd take a little off the top, but that's being nitpicky.
