Good day all,
We have had a Shiny Cowbird calling numerous times for about five days. It
calls throughout the day and can be heard with our maa as my number of
Brown-Headed Cowbirds.
We think it is a juvenile or female as the adult males (even this time of
year) would be highly noticeable compared to the BHC.
I have attached a couple of photos of what I believe to be the suspect
Shiny. Can anyone’s help confirm that this is the bird in question, a Shiny
Cowbird?
We have multiple Bronzed at feeders this time of year, and have had Merlin
“ID” a Shiny once or twice in the past, but this time the bird is clearly
here by sound, but visually identifiable is proving to be the tricky thing.
