March Comes like a Lion

Here March weather is very changeable and often referred as "comes like a lion and leaves like a lam."     An equivalent saying in Japan can be "三寒四温," meaning it gradually warms up in the spring time (alternating three days of cold and four days of warm).

In the neighborhood, a plum tree has full of blossoms, withstanding the cold temperature.

A bush of Forthysia  is another spring blossoms.

Yesterday Uncle House Sparrow  was making sure the sun stays on.

A couple  of  House finches were chatting in the sunny spot.

Today turned out to be a cold day with the sky covered with clouds all over.

But there is a bright spot in my backyard,   because I found someone NEW. 

A sort of...

He looks like a male Oregon Junco, but his dark head has white feathers scattered all over.     A new hybrid Junco since Juncos have many varieties?

So far I have not seen this type in my bird books.   If  any of you has seen    this hybrid, please let me know.
