Yellow-eyed Junco
In the summer, Yellow-eyed Juncos are the only species of Junco in SE Arizona, but in the winter there are many Dark-eyed Juncos (including several subspecies: Oregon, Pink-sided,Gray-headed, etc.), which makes it difficult to pick out the Yellow-eyed. Madera Canyon, where I took this picture, is in the northern-most part of their range. I really love these little birds, they always look fierce and are very photogenic.
