Did you know that juncos are in the sparrow family? There are 5 types of dark eyed juncos and they range across Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. And they form monogamous relationships... meaning they are one of those rare breeds that mates for life. :) One last little interesting nugget of junco info - They are often called the 'snowbird', as in the eastern U.S. they appear at the start of the winter and then flies north again in the spring! So, Eastern U.S.-ers... enjoy them while you can, because they'll be gone soon!
