Not to one-up my friend Bill Grabin but we had 12 juncos yesterday feeding in the woods margin and 27 white-throated sparrows on the lawn last Friday at our house in West Kennebunk. And Bill IS very dependable.

Re: [Maine-birds] Consistent Juncos

Banding studies in the past have shown that the Juncos which show up at your feeders are generally the same individuals year after year, of course with new birds added each year born this year. While this is not true for White-throated Sparrows. Those seen each year are mostly different. Clearly nothing is exactly 100% true but Juncos and White-throats follow very different patterns.

Had our first Junco of the Fall show up in our yard today, which was the same date we had them last year (10/15/23) and one day later than 10/14/22. I wish I could be that dependable! Bill

Re: [Maine-birds] Consistent Juncos

Really nice. Thanks Bill for posting to this list. Mine came 2/3 days ago. Feeding on the ground. Love them. Had my first American Tree Sparrow today. 2 beautiful White-throateds have been here about a week.

[Maine-birds] How to obscure location

On ebird app. For game birds. I can hear gun shots nearby on private land. I don't want to submit a game bird location that is visible ro everyone ( even though everyone in the neighborhood must know already). So i have withheld this part of my submitted observation. How should i do this? I have photos. Nothing at all uncommon. I don't need to add this familiar bird to the list. Maybe just put data on computer i Nat where it is easy to obscure the location for a single observation.
