    These are fun birds to watch as they're pecking around on the ground. It is a Slate-Colored Junco. Juncos are a type of sparrow.

    Thanks, everyone. Doug, you are the second person to call it a junco and after looking up images of junco, I have to agree. Thanks for the help!

    Cheers!

    great catch. I was going to say Junco and then saw that you had already figured it out. I like the sharpness

    Very nice detail Iggy. They are cute little buggers.
    Used to have lots of these down South, but none here.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!
