    Junco experts - Alberta, Canada

    I’m confused about Junco hyemalis (cismontanus) versus Junco hyemalis (mearnsi) Was there a taxonomic change? Or which is a subspecies of what? I’m just using eBird and checked avibase. Any insights appreciated! Cheers E2 Here are my pics (single individual) from Edmonton, Alberta Canada.

    I just learned that in North America, these are all classified as the same species. This is the "Oregon" variation. As a child in NY, I saw the Slate-Colored version.

    Juncos (finally) arrive in Connecticut.

    We may not have a single flake on the ground yet, but Nutmeggers know that winter's officially here when the juncos arrive. They began showing up last week to feast on the winter-blooming berry bushes in the wildlife preserve.

    Mt. Mitchell Juncos?

    I was just at the summit of Mt. Mitchell and saw Dark-eyed Juncos. Thing is, they seemed a bit paler than those at lower elevation, particularly the females. Has anyone else noticed this or is this just a random observation? Thanks.

    Sorry to be so repetitive with these birds. I don't know how common these birds are in general, but as for us,we are inundated with them, so it's not hard to spot one in a good pose. I was looking out my front door the other day and there must have been fifty juncos there. My wife called out...
