A Dark-eyed Junco (slate-colored subspecies) hopping along the nature trail. They are one most common birds in North America, and a lovely winter visitor here in southeast Michigan.

antepenultimate = third-to-last in a series
preantepenultimate = fourth-to-last in a series
propreantepenultimate = fifth-to-last in a series

Take a look through your rock collection, or think of the one from your childhood. Look through your bracelets, or the magnets on your fridge. If you live in a place with red soil, just look down. The answer is there.
