A bird, a Short-eared Owl, in flight with its wings spread horizontally. The Owl is in the upper right quarter of the frame. Its yellow eye with black pupil shows prominently in its face. The background is tall, brown and gold grass. The color of the bird matches the color of the grass quite well. It’s a good example of effective camouflage.

Two Dark-eyed Juncos

by Earthwatcher, posted in Atlanta, Bellevue, Bird Photography, bird watching, birding, Birds, Earthwatcher, GA, Georgia, nature, Nature Photography, Roswell, Uncategorized, Washington, Wildlife, Wildlife Photography

There are several subspecies of Dark-eyed Juncos: the Oregon, the Slate-gray, the Canadian Rocky Mountain, the White-winged, the Pink-sided, and the Gray-headed. I’ve only been fortunate enough to see two of them. They are a type of Sparrow. They all have black eyes and a pink bill.

When I visit the west coast, I see the Oregon sub-species. Here in Georgia and other eastern US locations, I see the Slate-gray. I’m always amazed at their beauty.
