Brown Thrashers,
Toxostoma rufum, live in the eastern and central parts of the United States and in several provinces of central Canada. They are melodious singers with a wide range of songs similar to, and some say even prettier than, the Mockingbird's.
Look for them foraging on the ground near hedgerows, dense shrubs, or thickets. They eat insects, nuts, seeds, fruit, and berries.
Have a beautiful day!

Thrashers are high on my list of favorite birds. Sadly, I almost never see them here.
