Junco hyemalis
Had a nice surprise at the feeders today. A piebald junco! These birds are normally dark gray with a white underside (females being slight lighter, often a brownish gray color). We see them in large groups here every winter.
Awesome! I had a ton of these in my backyard last year, but one were white! (I wish I had seen a white one)
What a sweet little bird, and a lovely photograph. Beautiful soft light and textures. A wonderful spotting of a bird I've not seen before.
