In 23+ years (or is it 24+) never had a spotted towhee in my yard (heated stream, native shrubs, feeders). Spending time in the shrubbery and bathing in the stream.
The completely different complexion of Junco races continue this year at my feeders. Wherein the past, the slate-colored group was rarely represented, and an abundance of the Oregon group and pink-sided juncos, along with gray-headed and the occasional white-winged was the usual makeup for years. This year - it is all (about 3 dozen) slate-colored group (mostly cismontanus - Cassiar) and a couple gray-headed mixed in. Had one or two white-winged for a day.
