Mike is exactly right when he says that juncos can sound like
Orange-crowned Warblers.  I was working in my yard quite a bit when I
heard the Orange-crowned Warbler singing in the neighborhood a couple
of weeks ago.  There were juncos singing, also, and it was fun to be
able to compare the two songs as I went about my work.
