    Towhee?

    Thank you...I had this down as a Canyon, but they really are not considered a species from the Baja. There was a chance something might have gotten blown across the Sea of Cortez in Monday Cat 1 hurricane! Thanks to all of you for your help Tom

    Towhee?

    I feel bad asking you for help, but I want to be sure....This 7.5-8" bird, was photographed on the southern end of the Baja, Mexico yesterday. It was found in some very thick thorny brush, much like I might have found a Green-tailed Towhee. Thank you for your help Tom

    You are correct NJ Larsen, I have been in contact with eBird and that is the consensus considering the split. Interestingly enough, of my dozens of guides and reference books, I can find no listing of the Ridgway's in anything.

    There is a large population of this endemic species around the water I found quite a ways out in the desert. The males all were quite shy but the females had no problem getting close, in fact several got well with in the minimum focal abilities of my lens

    That looks like a very well fed Coyote! Given the time of year that great shot was captured, they usually are looking pretty scruffy... Excellent image, crystal clear with some beautiful lighting.... Very well done my friend Tom

    Very well captured my friend! Lot of things to avoid with that shot, and you did it perfectly! This bird looks much like the Grackles we have a lot of in central Mexico. Tom
