Hi Bill. Thanks for the spotting. I agree with Cody, these are definitely Dark-eyed Juncos. There are several different races of Dark-eyed Junco, so depending on your bird guides you might not have a picture of this race. These birds would be the "Oregon" race of Dark-eyed Junco. Below is a link you might find interesting.
