Hi Laura,

I wasn’t suggesting it was a spelling error.  I just offered a few examples 
from “published” sources.  I, myself, hadn’t thought about it before, so was 
motivated to check.

How is that a spelling error? According to Merriam-Webster (the dictionary used 
by many publications), the plural of junco is "juncos or juncoes." The first 
given is usually the preferred one.
