I've had Juncos stay around and breed for the past three summers! The first brood this year was Cowbirds but they tried again and fledged DEJUs. Oh, and I live in Syracuse, albeit a hilly, wooded part of the city.

Old-timers thought seeing the first juncos meant that was a sign of snow so called them Snowbirds. Is snow in the forecast??? We had a few sprinkles of rain this a.m. while praying for about 5 days of steady rain. Fritzie B.
