Dark-eyed Junco

Dark-eyed Junco: a small, grayish bird with a dark head. Common across temperate North America. I've seen several of these birds outside my building on main campus. They hang out in a little patch of dirt with a pine tree and a few other shrubs. I believe that the males are more vibrantly colored, with darker heads and more defined browns and grays. The females seem to be a more pale, mixed shade of brown. On the ground, these birds are difficult to spot, as they camouflage well.

I took this photo of a Dark-eyed Junco outside my dorm building.
