After a week or so of recovering from our Alaska trip (trip species list to follow I promise) it’s time to announce the arrival of all the new babies at our feeders.
The juvenile spotted towhees seem to be so much more drab than their parents but the more cryptic coloration creates much better camouflage than the bold rufous, white and black (and bright red eye) of the grown-ups. This may be the same little fledgling I photographed hopping away from the gopher snake a month ago.
