Junco Identification
Discover Dark-Eyed Juncos, Yellow-eyed Juncos, Gray-headed
Juncos, and much more.
A glimpse through bird watching binoculars reveals that there is a wide variation
in color in the Juncos distributed throughout North America. Both eastern Juncos and
western Juncos feature a pink beak and white outer tail feathers, but shades of
black, grey, and brown markings alter greatly from region to region. This busy and
territorial bird tends to be a ground feeder and moves through the lower branches
of trees and shrubs.
