Summary I've regularly been seeing juncos running their bills along the seed pods of Glandular Willow-herb (Epilobium ciliatum) in the yard (presumably) to get the seeds. I'm not sure if they also are just consuming the down that is attached to the seeds, or if they're able to get the seeds out of it.
