This past week I was in St.Louis, and I had no time for any birding, but I did walk around the campus where I was working looking to see what may be lurking around.
I didn’t see anything unusual, but it was nice to see many White-throated Sparrows and Dark-eyed Juncos, which we don’t get to see much in Central Florida.
So these are my first photos of the “slate-colored” subspecies of Dark-eyed Juncos.
Last November I visited my sister in Seattle, and there I photographed my first “Oregon” subspecies as well.
