These guys have shown up in the last couple of weeks. The best match I've come up with is dark-eyed junco....but I'm far from sure.

Dark-eyed Junco. Notice the contrasting white belly to the rest of the gray bird. Females are browner where the males are gray. When they fly, they flash white in their tails and make distinctive trilling calls.
 
The juncos just arrived at my house last week. They'll most likely stay all winter. Watch for the pink bill which stands out against the gray face. They are quite friendly and will venture pretty close so enjoy.
