Rufous-sided Towhee



Continuing with my weekend bird posts, this is, as the title implies, a Rufous-sided Towhee. It is a male with the black coloring, the female has a more browny coloration. I found him while on a walkabout this morning out at the State Game Lands. The second picture he has his mouth open singing, he gets his name from the sound he makes. The third picture shows his back side.
