Perfectly happy to be gray, thank you

Dark-eyed Junco, White-winged race, Kennebunk, Maine, USA — yesterday we featured a proud Bluebird. While I was photographing it, this Dark-eyed Junco was on the deck under it harvesting spilled seed…perfectly happy to be plain gray. 🙂 We have the White-winged race of the junco in southern Maine, along with the more common Slate-colored…and I am pretty sure many of the lighter colored (or lighter gray) birds are intergrades, as the white in the wings is very subtle.
