  11. I had my first flock of juncoes yesterday but I'm not as enthusiastic as you. Around here they call them "snow birds" and there is a good reason for that! Your photos are beautiful.

  27. Oh how cute..I read the Finch Forecast and I guess the nuts and seed crop was good this season so I won't see as many winter migrants as usual as they will have enough to eat.. Michelle
