The Dark-eyed juncos lived up to their name as "snowbirds" the last few days. 🥰 A LOT of snow fell in just a couple days and these little darlings showed up to my feeders. ❄️ They really seem to prefer hopping around in the snow so I patted down an area near to the feeder and sprinkled seeds on the snow for them. 🐦 They loved it and I loved watching them. 🤍 Anyone else getting to see these pretty winter sparrows lately? Learn about them here 👉https://youtu.be/u7ujX8rLSIo

Boreal chickadees are awesome. 1st pic is Speckle's mate, Pip, the next 4 pics are Speckle and the last is a cute younger boreal that hangs out in his little flock. 🐦☺️

The most unique looking blue jay I've known. She has so much white throughout her plumage, even her crest has some white. Her black markings aren't that bold and her eyes are very striking. So pin sharp and dark. I've shared pictures of her before, her name is Snow White.

Look at that beautiful blue color. 🥰 My buddy Blue is such a gorgeous blue jay, and even more so in the winter when it's a little chilly 🐦💙

Corvid, and bird lovers in general, you will enjoy this short but sweet video where ‪@BirdingwithKaliopi‬ shows ravens enjoying their gift of flight, playing around and perfecting their skills.

The one and only, Blue, my best bird buddy 💙🐦Fourteen years of knowing this wild soul… it never stops feeling magical. 🥰 Doesn't he have such a beautiful home? 😊

Sweet Blue likes to decorate his face with tamarack needles, while his mate Chloe prefers to floof out her belly feathers, making it look as though she is wearing a dress. Both are cute, but I think Chloe looks ready for a ball. 😅 Did you know Blue Jays fluff up their feathers not only to trap warm air, but also when they’re feeling relaxed or comfortable?

In this picture, Chloe is all fluffed up ---her way of showing she feels safe around me… and also her way of saying, ‘Yes, I’d love a peanut or almond, please.’ 💙🐦 Which, of course, I’m more than happy to oblige.

Ada's got the look!! There's a strength in this little Black-capped chickadee that I can't quite explain. She's barely 10 grams, but the way she perches, the way she holds her ground, you'd swear she carries the whole forest in her chest. I love her. Check out her story here https://youtu.be/oDQ-DvmrMAg
