Bird Watching: Finally caught the junco standing still

I know juncos like the feeder I placed on the ground last week. They’ve visited it every day since.


It has been hard, however, to snap a photo of one or two birds while they’re picking up the seeds I’ve tossed into the feeder.


They hear me coming down the back stairs - even in stocking feet - and fly in a flash toward the spruce trees when I move the curtain at the window and raise my camera.

Yesterday I got lucky. Maybe I had thicker socks on my feet. Maybe the seeds tasted better. Gotcha!
