I saw one in my yard (University District-Ravenna area) about a week ago. I
did not write down the date.

Subject: [Tweeters] juncos?



Has anyone had juncos return to their yard in the Greater Seattle lowlands?
I haven't, and I'm shocked, as my arrival dates have been as follows:



12 Sep 93

20 Sep 94

3 Sep 95

20 Sep 96

20 Sep 97

21 Sep 98

9 Oct 99

24 Sep 00

4 Sep 01

22 Sep 02

27 Sep 03

7 Sep 04

19 Sep 05

18 Sep 06



Of course I might have missed the first day or so and was doubtless out of
town during a few of those Septembers, but the juncos were definitely
present by those dates! Thus it really surprises me that on this year of
(seemingly) winter weather coming early, I have no juncos. I'll be sure to
post when the first one appears.
