Location: Guelph, Ontario
Camera info/settings
- Canon 7D Mark II, Sigma 150-600

They are monogamous and will mate for life, and they are known for their unique courtship behavior, which involves the male puffing out his chest and flicking his tail feathers.
These birds are a favorite among birdwatchers because they are easy to spot and have a wide range of color variations.
They are also important indicators of forest health and can serve as an early warning system for environmental problems.
During courtship, male Dark-eyed Juncos perform a delightful, bouncing dance that involves fluffing up their feathers and spreading their tails to showcase their white outer feathers.
Dark-eyed Juncos are highly social birds and often engage in group activities like dust bathing and sunning. They are also known to engage in playful behavior, such as chasing each other and performing acrobatic feats in mid-air.
