I hope that's how you spell the name of the blue-gray bird with a black head and white beak. It's a ground feeder and absolutely charming to me. Junco Jive The junco goes a bobbin’, white beak centered on his head. Then spying my fingers twitch, he flits away instead. I miss the little junco and the friends that us’ally play about my patio and bed in the seed and leaf array. I’d no idea that he would know someone’s watching from the wing, and he would fly a beeline for a perch that’s safe to cling. O, Little Junco, please return your charm does woo me so I love to watch your smooth black head, why did you have to go? ©January 26, 2003 Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

I expect he'll be back - He probably doesn't like the cold either... Nicely written, VAS...  |

You captured my favorite bird, being himself. Love those little critters! |
