Here, about 6 miles north of Idaho Falls, I’ve been having a mini irruption of Juncos.  Normally this time of year I would be host to a few, maybe 5 or 6, but the last 2 weeks or more there must be over 100 foraging in my yard and the field next door.  

  Quite unusual for me.

Last few days, have had regular visits by: a Mtn Chickadee, sev Pine Siskins, an Evening Grosbeak &, going on a week now, a Steller’s Jay. All hitting the sunflower seeds on the platform feeder. Think they must have known, a change in the weather was coming.
