dragon49 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 This is the only cowbird I've seen - Brown-headed. Not a good photo, but it qualifies. 🙂 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/529186591 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clip Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Two-fer-I have seen many many many Brown-headed Cowbirds but have only seen Bronzed twice. No Shiny yet. The photo below has both Brown-headed and Bronzed and happens to be when I got the Bronzed as a life bird. To answer @stitch58 I do have one somewhere I believe but finding it could take a long time. If I do find it I can't post it here without violating the one pic per poster rule. It would be a good for iNaturalist though. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry Friedman Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 It won't be necessary for your baby cowbird if you find it, but in general, you can always post in the "no rules" thread, and mention it here if you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
