Found in Chicago.
I note saying that I believe that even if you think you have no artistic skill, I'd rather see your effort than your A.I.

The Common stonechat (Saxicola torquatus) is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List with a stable population trend. It is found throughout Europe, huge swathes of Asia and large areas of Africa. Their preferred habitat is heathland with gorse as can be seen here with a male perched on a gorse branch. It mainly consumes invertebrates but will also eat fruit and seeds. It is a partial migrant.

A bird stands in a setting of sand and grass. It faces away from the camera displaying its speckled back. Its face is turned in profile showing its short black beak.
