no more male juncos

first, let me explain what juncos are, they are birds with black heads and brown wings and white underparts, the thing is they migrate north for the summer(they are here in winter but up north for summer) OK, now that you know a little bit about juncos, I'll explain the story.

so today, when I was watching birds, I noticed that there were no male juncos(you can tell if there males, if they have a much darker head) you are probably wondering why? well, they actually migrate before the females, to set up a territory! pretty cool huh! juncos are pretty cool birds!

That is really cool McKay. You really do know a lot about birds. I love that the pine sisken ate out of your hand. It must have known how much you love birds.
