Dark-eyed Juncos are frequent visitors to the feeders in my garden in winter.  I love their peach-colored bill.  Here’s one sitting on the branch of my Yew bush in between snacking on seeds and visiting with St. Francis (see yesterday’s post).  On another bird related topic, this afternoon I noticed that one of my birdhouses was lying in the snow, instead of being mounted to the tree in its usual spot.  I saw squirrels near it this morning, so possibly they knocked it down.  When I looked inside, I saw the remains of a nest from the summer and acorns!  Now I’m wondering if the squirrels dropped the acorns in the opening at the front of the birdhouse and then couldn’t figure out how to get back inside to retrieve them!  Guess I’d better put out some extra food for the squirrels!
