I have seen eleven Dark-eyed Juncos in the backyard today. Here is evidence of their presence.

Faye and I took a walk earlier (photos to come). When we returned home I stayed out to shovel the driveway and brush the vehicles. Achilles stayed out with me. As I wrapped up my task it began snowing – big Christmas flakes floating out of the sky. I was struck by how well dusted Chili dog was as well as his seeming disregard of the snow. I also like the demonstration of how mobile a dogs ears are.
