Murray 1948 JUNCO June 11 La Laguna, 6200 ft. Sierra de la Laguna, Baja Calif. branch of a pine tree Several times while I was motionless under the trees, from one to four birds would come near and scold excitedly and insistently. Twice by means of squeaks I drew five birds from all sides, very excited and very noisy. These and all the others were quite fearless and would approach as near as 3 feet with impunity June 12 same location In the late afternoon saw a young junco on the ground out in the open which flew up into a large oak with 2 others. All gave continuous peeping sounds, and looked at me without any apparent fear. Soon a pair of parent birds arrived and one fed one of the young.
