While waiting for some raccoons to come down a trail, I spied these guys. Our security cam showed some Raccoons heading towards me down an established critter trial. They turned off somewhere before getting to me. Yes the undergrowth is impenetrable in that area away from the trail.
The Pink-sided Dark-eyed Junco appears in about equal numbers to the regular Dark-eyed Juncos. I understand that seven varieties of Dark-eyed Juncos are recognized. I see two or three varieties on our property. The differences are subtle, though so I could be missing something!
The Song Sparrow appears whenever I whistle. Fun little birds that hang around our farm area.
D850, 500pF, 1/640, f 5.6, ISO 5600 to 8000, handheld. On EC or CPL- some pp and cropping did occur.
Download and enjoy!

Nice shots, Tim. I’ve never seen that junco before and your song sparrow is adorable!

Thanx! Noted the subtle differences in the Juncos I see. More research is needed. I will try to get good shots of the different ones. We have at least 40 Juncos we see everyday.
