Greetings Sparrow Experts,
I am looking for help with subspecies identification of a Dark-eyed
Junco I mist netted last week. This bird was captured in SW Wyoming, in the
mountains South of Rock Springs & East of the Flaming Gorge reservoir. I
initially believed this bird to be of the Rocky Mountain
Slate-colored/Cassiar's variety, but could it be an Oregon... or a hybrid?
The majority of Juncos we have observed in the area have been Gray-headed,
along with a few Pink-sided. Any insight is appreciated, the photos can be
viewed at the following link. Thanks!
