Hello All,
I had put this on FB (Centre County Birding and the ABA's bird ID site) looking for suggestions as to what it is. So far, it seems that it could be a Dark-eyed Junco/Cassiar Junco hybrid, female, with some leucism (white on the throat).
Anybody care to weigh in? It was photographed outside my dining room windows on Jan 15. I briefly saw a similar bird on the 16, but it has not been seen since. We have had 40-60 DEJUs coming in twice a day for white millet etc for at least one week.
