Slate-colored Dark-eyed Junco (male)
This little guy was only around for a few days. He caught my eye because he didn't look quite the same as the "Oregon" Juncos we've got. According to my Sibley field guide, he's a "Slate-Colored" Dark-eyed Junco, Canadian Rocky Mountains variant. Big name for such a small bird! Apparently they nest in the Canadian Rockies and this one is spending the winter here in Utah.
