Brown Thrashers,
Toxostoma rufum, may be found across the eastern half of North America from the Gulf of Mexico to southern Canada. They eat insects, worms, seeds, fruits, and occasionally, frogs and lizards.
Brown Thrashers are rather secretive birds, preferring to forage in the underbrush. I was surprised to see two of them out in an open grassy area.
Have a wonderful day!

One of my very favorite birds and I almost never see them here. But I remember them being common in Northeast Mississippi when I grew up there.
ReplyDeleteHello, the Brown Thrasher is on my many list of favorite birds. I love their eyes. Great shots. Wishing you a happy day!
ReplyDeleteThey're quite photogenic. I don't think they come this way.

Of course I never see them here at our home, but I do out at the strip pits, but never get an opportunity to photograph one. You got great photos.
ReplyDeleteThey are pretty birds, aren't they!!
