I saw my first Dark-eyed Juncos of the season while walking my dog in the park on Sunday, 10/20. There were several flitting around in a tree. I was glad to spot them, but sorry that they are bringing winter behind them.

Caught just a glimpse of the flashes of white in the tail, which I've always compared to cheer-leader skirts that were worn when I was in high school. Jo Ann Eldridge, Kearney, Clay Co.
