Hearts … such a sweet symbol of love…
I happened to glance out the window today and spotted a little junco looking up at me. I went to grab my camera, and honestly didn't expect him to still be there when I got back to the window...

... but he was. It won't be long before he is flying north to Canada for the summer.…
He sat on the gate for the longest time, just looking up at the dining room window and the feeder… Perhaps he was memorizing them so he’ll be able to head straight back here next winter.
He was perched right above the heart cut-out on the backyard gate (that I wrote about here)… I like to think he was sending me some valentine love…
So eat up before your long flight, little junco… And rest assured, the feeder will be full and waiting for you when you return next winter!
