On the subject of Juncos, while they been around for several weeks here, we got a very significant arrival of them overnight. More than 40 in the yard this morning and over 300 counted on the road/trails at Cedar Point. Since then I've also had several flocks passing over the yard - seems they are on the move today. Other movement here over the past week has been more typical - we got a wave of Hermit Thrushes on Sunday (5 in one Magnolia tree in the yard and 20 or more most days at Cedar Point). Golden-crowned and Ruby-crowned Kinglets are still around in numbers but the balance has tipped towards Golden-crowned in the past week. There are also still good numbers of Phoebe's and Yellow-rumped Warblers, a few Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers and a scattering of Eastern Bluebirds. In the straggler category we've had a few Yellow-billed Cuckoos in the past week and single Indigo Bunting, Blackpoll Warbler, Red-eyed Vireo and Swamp Sparrow.
