Busted
Here’s me getting busted by this lovely female Spotted Towhee (Pipilo maculatus) sitting on the fence with the SalmonBerry Bush. I haven’t seen her this season, but she showed up today and I’m happy! So will her mate I guess!

In the Dirt
On a wet rainy day, there’s noplace the Spotted Towhee (Pipilo maculatus) would rather be than kicking and scratching around in the leaf litter for whatever it can find to eat. This time a nice sunflower seed!
On the Fence

A Spotted Towhee. For the most part these birds are very shy. They generally are on the ground and keep under cover. This one has been with us since fledging. It’s finally got it’s adult feathers and is very handsome. It has been around long enough that it will go on the feeders. Here it’s on a tray with Niger seed. This seems to be a favourite, for this guy anyway!
