A large gray sparrow has red feathers on its head and light green tail feathers.
A large sparrow is standing on a metal tube fence. Its front is white, sides are rufous brown, its head and neck are black. It is molting and many head feathers are gone.
I hear it’s #TowheeTuesday!

A smallish brown bird has short dark brown tail feathers, it may be regrowing the tail feathers lost by fright molt due to a very close call with a predator. The bird is standing on a concrete patio with its back to us while looking to the right.
I heard it’s #TowheeTuesday!
Usually California towhees have a magnificent tail but this one is short. May have had a bout with fright molt 🤷♂️ It got a few mealworms to help with the tail feathers 😄

Look close to see the tongue, still inside the mouth, so technically does not qualify for tongues out Tuesday. Look at the feather detail!

A Green-tailed Towhee (Pipilo chlorurus) perched on an old tree stump with its mouth wide open.
We found this incredible Green-tailed Towhee (Pipilo chlorurus) on one of our hikes in Yellow National Park. #TowheeTuesday #birds #wildlife #yellowstone
Generally nondescript bird that sort of looks like an oversize sparrow without any distinctive markings and without any really distinctive behaviors, other than coming close for pictures

🪶 It’s #TowheeTuesday! (Sound on.) This little guy was proudly singing that he made it to the top of a tree — quite a feat for a bird that mainly hops around in the underbrush! We have tons in our forest, they pop up like little popcorns from the Salal bushes. Kind of forgot they could fly!

This Spotted Towhee (Pipilo maculatus) was up early this morning, singing for all to hear. #wildlife #towheetuesday #birds #birding

We’re bringing #towheetuesday to Bluesky! Often heard in Lyonia Preserve, the beautiful Eastern Towhee is masterful at hiding in the scrub. Fortunately for us though, we got a good glimpse of this one!
