JUNCO

Junco

A Junco, genus Junco, is a small North American bird. Junco systematics are still confusing after decades of research, with various authors accepting between three and twelve species. Despite having a name that appears to derive from the Spanish term for the plant genus Juncus, these birds are seldom found among rush plants, as these prefer wet ground, while junco like dry soil.
