WHITE-WINGED JTJNCO. 



566. Junco aikeni. 6^ inches. 



Slightly larger than the common eastern Junco, and 

 with two white bars on the wing and more white on 

 the tail. 



This species cannot be regarded as common anywhere, 

 even locally, and in most sections of its range it is rare. 

 There are no peculiarities in its habits and I believe that 

 its nests and eggs have not, as yet, been discovered. 



Range. Breeds in Wyoming and the Dakotas and 

 winters in Colorado and eastward to Kansas.
