Hi, The nesting range Dark-eyed Juncos in Ohio is limited to a small area on the higher elevations east of Cleveland. In this area the nesting population has exploded in the past 30 years and they are common in appropriate habitat. This habitat is no longer limited to mature forests, Hemlock ravines, and Sharon Conglomerate outcrops. In fact reports of Juncos building nests in hanging plant baskets at sites well away from any of the above, are increasingly common in Geauga County. Additionally, in Kirtland we have noticed the Juncos now sing an atypical song. It is similar to a Tennessee or sometimes Nashville Warbler and can be mistaken for those species during migration. Lisa Rainsong has recorded this and the sonogram is similar to a Tennessee Warbler but does show differences. She is working to get better quality recordings and sonograms. Interestingly, there are no recordings of Dark-eyed Junco from Ohio, in the Macaulay sound library at Cornell. Today I was able to get video of a Junco singing this atypical song. Many Ohio birders have never heard a Junco singing on territory so in might be useful to listen to one of the many typical examples of their song for comparison.
