A handsome black, orange, and white bird is perched on some low vegetation. This is an Eastern Towhee. Eastern Towhees are large, long-tailed sparrows found in shrubby habitats, old fields, and forest edges. We don’t often see them in the High Peaks region. Although they breed throughout much of New York State, the only confirmed breeding bird sightings for Eastern Towhees in the third New York Breeding Bird Atlas are on the periphery of the Park. I took this photo at Heaven Hill near Lake Placid in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York.

A bird stands on some mulch. It has a black head, wing, and tail with some small white accents. Its belly is white and its sides are rust-colored. The birds is clearly soggy.

For @javajanegallery.co.uk’s #SmallBirdSaturday, here is a very soggy and disgruntled-looking #EasternTowhee. #birds #WildlifePhotography #ECK

Welcome Back!... Late afternoon. Tito the Eastern Towhee, enjoying the fresh air & scenery. He had just arrived from his Southern migration, with a very big appetite. Stay safe my friend. Very handsome.

Passing Through... Early evening. Tito the Eastern Towhee, showing off his tight buttocks, while enjoying the fresh air and scenery. He was on a stopover, as he slowly starts his Southern migration. Very handsome. 📸 🇨🇦

Looking round, and slightly startled, a large patchwork sparrow with black back, head and throat, umber sides and white breast stands in scrubby grass.

This Eastern towhee lives in our neighborhood but he usually stays well hidden. I’d like to offer apologies to the lady whose yard we stalked in order to get a few pictures of him. 🪶 #birds #birding #birdphotography #easterntowhee

🌎 Eastern Towhee (Pipilo erythrophthalmus) 

The Eastern Towhee, also known as Chewink or Joree, is a large New World sparrow. Males have black heads, backs, and tails with rusty-orange sides and a white belly; females are similar but brown where males are black. They have distinctive red or white eyes.

They are widely distributed across eastern North America, inhabiting brushy areas, forest edges, and thickets. Northern populations migrate south for winter, while southern ones may be year-round residents.

Eastern Towhees are primarily ground foragers, using a characteristic two-footed backward scratch to uncover insects and seeds in leaf litter. They are often heard before seen, with a "drink-your-tea" song and a "chewink" call. Males are territorial and monogamous during breeding. 2.5 Flash (Edited)

Four subspecies are recognised.

Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1)

An Eastern Towhee, a rare visitor to my home - Captured on a rainy day, with but a smart phone, through a wind and rain swept screen... a poor photo but a painterly effect derived...
