All expected races/groups of Juncos have arrived at my feeder in the past few weeks except white-winged (aikeni).
Pink-sided (mearnsi) and Oregon (shufeldti) arrived a couple weeks ago; and this week brought slate-colored (hyemalis) and Cassiar (cismontanus) with the bad weather. Of course gray-headed (caniceps) is here year round, but I suspect different individuals between summer and winter. I don't pretend to ID every junco at my feeders, but I have had at least one classic individual of each of the 5 races listed above. I still have a couple imm band-tailed pigeons hanging out. Move Trivia: I haven't seen The Big Year yet - perhaps tomorrow - but I do know that the picture of the Loggerhead Shrike shown, as I have been told on a handheld device in the movie, is one taken from Crow Valley Campground in 2004, near Briggsdale, CO!
