My Junco's came back this weekend; back from Canada and Alaska where they migrated, mated, and raised their young. They look particularly crisp, cheerful, and well rested hopping about on the deck while eating up the left-over canary food. The white feathers on the sides of their tails are very evident when they fly. With their pink bills and dark eyes that blend into the color of their heads, they look blind to me. I have no way of knowing if these are the same birds that were here on my deck in 2011 but it makes me feel good to think they were here before.
