In my wanderings through the University of Wisconsin Arboretum recently,
I spotted a bird for about a second which I would swear was a Northern
(Oregon) Junco.
There are scores of Slate Juncos in Wisconsin, but Northern's are indicated
as being occasional accidentals east of the Rockies. I was just wondering
if any other easterners on the net have run across one in this or past
winters.
On another topic, this group has been rather dead since I subscribed, so I'd
like to suggest a couple of topics.
(1) Does anyone subscribe to *Birdwatcher's Digest*? I believe that's the
correct name, but I do know that it is published in Marietta, Ohio. Just
wondering if it's worthwhile.
(2) I for one would be interested in hearing descriptions of outings by
netbirders giving weather, region, habitat, birds seen, etc. If anyone
indicates an interest in such exchanges, I'd be happy to start off.
