Snow Birds Name

Snow birds name

We call them “snowbirds,” because they leave as soon as the snow begins to fall and temperatures drop. But there's another type of snowbird — the Dark-eyed Junco. Although you may see Dark-eyed Juncos here in summer, come fall, many, many more arrive to spend the winter.

These 10 species are the most widespread birds that come to feeders in winter across the US:

• Dark-eyed Junco.

What's the opposite of a snowbird?

Snowbirds used to primarily be retired or older, but are increasingly of all ages. Conversely, a sunbird is one who leaves warmer locales in the summer, migrating to cooler locales such as higher elevations or more northerly regions.

Where did the term snowbird come from?

It was first used to describe men who enlisted in the armed forces to get food and clothing during the winter months and then deserted as the warm spring weather approached. Not long after, the term was applied to the northern laborers who would flock down south to work as the cold, harsh winter set in up north.
