Petee Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I'm not good with birds or bugs, but there are a couple of readers, Phoebe and (can't think of her reader name) who are excellent. Once they have time to check in I'm positive they will have a good ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsmyhubby Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I don't think the beak looks right for either a cross-bill or a grossbeak. And the head and beak are wrong for a thrasher..they have a long beak and a longer tail. Interesting..I hope someone can give you a positive ID on it, so I can know too! I couldn't find naything in any of our bird books with that coloring with a dark, short beak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pheobe Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Looks like a female Eastern Towhee. The male sings a song that sounds like "drink your tea". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
