[TN-Bird] "Scout" junco arrives; EC doves gone

Hello Birders,
 
My "advance scout" dark-eyed junco just arrived at my home in the Charlotte 
Park section of West Nashville.  He is of the slate-colored variety, is making 
himself right at home, and he's HUNGRY!!!!!!!!!  I always get a "scout" junco 
about one to three days ahead of the rest of his crew.  They are always a 
delightful addition to Dee's "Smorgabird."
 
By the way, I don't think that I posted that the 6 Eurasian collared doves 
have not been here for about a month after having started with one early in the 
spring, then its mate, then four more later on (their young?).  I did not 
realize they "meandered."  Wonder if they'll be back next spring.  Anybody know 
their "migration" habits?  I certainly enjoyed having them here.
