The peak of Dark-eyed Junco migration has reached the south shore of Lake 
Superior.  This evening I counted 310 in my yard.  Earlier this morning, local 
birder Harold Vanselow commented, "The commute in from Cornucopia today [to 
Ashland] was made eventful by the thousands of juncos lining the road for 
nearly 20 miles. Every tenth of a mile or so another flock would swirl up from 
the roadside. It was a challenge to dodge them all but we managed to do that."
