Robins are singing already here, early in the morning. A Song Sparrow has been carrying a tune somewhere in my front yard.

But you are right, they are not as into congregating in numbers at the feeder.

And don't worry about those Juncos. They spend the winter here where we have lots of snow and cold, and they thrive. We always called them "snowbirds" when I was young, because they came with the winter. There are still some here, but they will be leaving soon.
