Is there a mad scientist among us that is genetically engineering
Junky-chicks or possibly a Doctor Finkenchick sewing chickadee heads onto
Juncos? If she or he is trying to get a head in the yard bird race their
Junco parocapitus and their Parus juncocephalus should be disqualified.

At first glance it
looked like it might be some odd sort of chickadee.
There have been numerous sightings east of Bellingham of what we're
calling a Juncadee--a junco body and a chickadee head. Chick-o, perhaps?
I have photos and video of this odd-looking character.
