Subject: Probable Dark-eyed Junco/Cassiar Junco hybrid female seen in Howard
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.
