Hi Tweeters
Am curious about distribution of Junco subspecies. We live on Orcas Island
and have a large flock of resident Dark-eyed Juncoes ("oregons") around the
house. I have noticed in the last week, however, that a couple "pink sided"
have joined the flock. Does this seem a little unusual or is it common for
them to wonder so far afield? We have only lived here for 3 years, but this
is the first year we've seem them.
